Hello, My name is Josephine. Iam a working breastfeeding mother supporting mothers to breastfeed. Iam very impressed with the article and this is a great step to reduction in IMR because malnutrition is a great contributor to the deaths for children under five years yet breast milk has all foods and people ignore it. As we are getting to celebrate the World Breastfeeding week 1-7th August with a theme Mother Support Going for Gold -ever one wins. This article comes in handy with the support we need from every person of the community to support mothers to breastfeed and save over 1 million babies who die every year because they are not breastfed during the first hour of birth and exclusively for the first six months of life yet breastfeeding contributes to saving economically, health wise, socially, environmentally etc.

Iam planning a breastfeeding exhibition in Kampala next month and I need your support of any kind. I will be happy if you avail me a discussion with you.

Hope to hear from you.

Thanks,

Josephine
