In an emergency, breastfeeding remains one of the safest ways to feed your baby. Breast milk provides nutrition and helps protect against illnesses, especially when clean water may be limited.
Be prepared:
✔️ Wash hands with clean water and soap (if no soap and safe water are available, use hand sanitizer)
✔️ Know how to hand express milk
✔️ Stay with your baby when possible

What counts as “moderate” vs. “vigorous” physical activity? 🤔
Moderate activity gets your heart beating faster, but you can still talk (like brisk walking or biking). Vigorous activity makes it hard to say more than a few words (like running or fast cycling).
Both count toward better health. 💪
