Breastfeeding: The First
Choice for the First State

Breastfeeding: The First Choice for the First State

Throughout most of human history, babies have thrived on only one food: breast milk. Across the world, human milk is recognized as the optimal form of infant nutrition because of its nutritional quality, the health benefits it provides, and its innate place in our life’s framework. 

The Breastfeeding Coalition of Delaware strives to protect, promote, and support breastfeeding in Delaware by imparting current and evidence-based information and skills to enable parents, families, health practitioners, and community leaders make informed decisions.
 
The BCD welcomes you to our website! We hope that it meets your needs. 
 
Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions, comments, or suggestions.
