The World Breastfeeding Week has traditionally been held from 1 to 7 August in more than 170 countries, including Russia. Annually, this week is marked by a number of events - charity events and events held in commemoration of the Innocenti Declaration of WHO and UNICEF, adopted in August 1990 to support natural feeding.

One of these actions took place in the framework of the socio-educational program "University of Motherhood" in the maternity hospitals of Moscow:

· Yudin State Clinical Hospital (4 Kolomenskiy pr.);
· 8th Childbearing Center of the 68th State Clinical Hospital (3 Samarkandskiy bulvar);
· 1st Childbearing Center of the 13th State Clinical Hospital (3 Sharikopodshipnikovskaya);

Throughout the week, the administration of maternity hospitals together with representatives of the GC "ROMART" congratulated women on the significant event – beginning of their motherhood.

Young mothers were told about the benefits of breastfeeding and presented pleasant and useful gift sets kindly provided by brands and our kind friends: NappyClub, Pigeon, Happy Baby, Fleur Alpine, LOVULAR, Tiny Love, Humana, AQA Baby, Sanosan, Bibikol, Medela.

The organizers of the action noted that new mothers are aware of the importance of breast milk for the health of the child and the need to preserve breastfeeding even after the introduction of complementary foods.

From the bottom of our heart we wish successful breastfeeding and safe motherhood to all women!
