Clean hands are vital to protect both mother and baby from illness. Here’s how to maintain good hygiene:
- Wash hands with soap and water before and after each feeding, diaper change, or pump use.
- Use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol if soap and water aren’t available.
- Clean breast pump parts and bottles thoroughly after every use.
- Keep your feeding area clean and clutter-free.
Good hygiene practices are simple but essential. For more tips on safe breastfeeding practices, our team at Borneo Mother and Child Care Hospital is always ready to assist you.
