On demand, exclusive, mixed... Forms of breastfeeding

After giving birth, there are several ways to breastfeed your baby, but the most important thing is to choose the method that will suit the mom's comfort and the baby's well-being.


  • Exclusive breastfeeding means exclusively breastfeeding your baby and, according to the WHO, this method of feeding is recommended until your baby's dietary diversification.
  • If you choose to breastfeed on demand, this means that you adapt to your baby's rhythm, the number of feeds vary from day to day depending on his hunger or need for physical closeness.
  • Mixed breastfeeding is the method preferred by moms. This feeding method, alternating breast and bottle feeding, adapts to the rhythm of life while favoring the baby's well-being.
  • On-demand, exclusive or mixed, no matter which breastfeeding method you choose, it must be a time of well-being and comfort for you and your baby.
