" seems the message that breast is best is getting through, with rates of breastfeeding on the rise in Australia, helped along by more family-friendly workplaces and improved support services for new mothers.
Mirroring US trends, the number of mothers initiating breastfeeding has moved to around 87-90 per cent, according to Karen Simmer, professor of Newborn Medicine at the University of Western Australia.

Morgan Zantua's magical baby has become a magical toddler.
An outgoing, loving, curious, talkative toddler. Quite a handful for a 53-year-old first-time mom.
Zantua made the news earlier this year when we told the story of her surprise first-time pregnancy at 51....

She's been swayed by studies showing the innumerable benefits to babies of breast-feeding - and reports that the longer mothers breast-feed, the less their chance of getting breast cancer."
