We are committed to the nutritional health and well-being of babies and mothers, and want to do our part to ensure that mothers receive the information and support they need to breastfeed successfully. Working with health care professionals, Abbott Nutrition can help mothers understand and choose the best feeding options for their babies and themselves, given their particular life circumstances.
Ensuring Optimal Infant Nutrition: A Shared Responsibility addresses the challenges and opportunities for increasing breastfeeding in the United States, including doing more to support breastfeeding in the workplace and the government's Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC).
Business Backs Breastfeeding™: A Flexible Workplace Program for Breastfeeding Mothers is a comprehensive workplace lactation program designed to help businesses support breastfeeding mothers when they return to work. The program addresses three essential workplace lactation program elements: support, space, and time. It is promoted in partnership with Working Mother Media (workingmother.com) and is designed to help employers tailor a workplace lactation program to fit the varying needs of their business and employees.
