I personally think this is a great idea we are the only country that does not do this and I think it is important to breastfeed your baby and spend that time with the baby for the first couple of delicate months

When we invest in wellness of the future generations it will have a great impact. More bonding time is needed and 3 months is not healthy. Let us see the value beyond a dollar bill and do this !
