Some of the advantages associated with exclusive breastfed babies is that it protects the baby from becoming sick at regular intervals, reduces the risk of gastrointestinal infections and regains weight, lost during birth.

Exclusive breastfed babies tends to grow more healthy than normal breast fed babies which are babies that are fed with breast milk and some other supportive infant food source.

I took out time to take a deep case study into this research for my personal knowledge and i had visited several homes, having newly born babies under the ages of one week to five months old. In my quest for this knowledge, i used two homes as samples for my case study, one being the home of a baby girl nursing mother strictly on exclusive and the other another baby girl nursing mother who is into normal breast feeding with supportive food supplements.

I usually visit these two homes at weekends with a few gift items for the babies in other to show a kinda appreciation for the audience usually given to me by the nursing mothers. At first encounter, i had made the intention of my research known to them and in return they offer me listening ears each time i pay them visits.

In my findings five months later, i came to discover a rapid growth in the exclusive breastfed baby which was my sample (A) than in that of baby sample (B). I couldn't argue further more than to make a few research using Google search engine, on the disadvantages and negative impacts of exclusive breastfeeding on nursing mothers.

Sore nipples, swollen breast and discomfort are some of the disadvantages attached to exclusive breastfeeding nursing mother since the baby depends solely on her breast milk to feed for up to 8-10 times in a day. On the other hand, slow return of menstrual circle and reduction to the risk of breast cancer are some of the advantages attached to exclusive breastfeeding.

If i am to advise based on my own findings and observations, i would recommend exclusive breastfeeding to normal breastfeeding with supportive food supplements.
