February is American Heart Month! ♥️ Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women in the United States. DYK that even a little breastfeeding goes a long way in protecting heart health of baby and mom!

A 2022 study published by the Journal of the American Heart Association showed that, "women who breastfed at some point during their lives were 17% less likely to die from cardiovascular disease than women who never breastfed" and "babies who consumed breastmilk, even for a few days, had lower blood pressure at 3 years of age compared to children who never had breast milk."

Every drop counts!
