ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Breast milk

Breast milk is a very special kind of milk that mommies can make for their babies when they are born. It's really good for babies to drink because it has all the important things babies need to grow up healthy, like vitamins and minerals.

When a mommy has a baby, her body starts making breast milk right away. The milk comes out of the mommy's breasts through little holes called nipples. Babies suck on the nipples and drink the milk.

The milk is always warm, and it's really yummy too! It comes in different flavors, like vanilla and chocolate. Mommies can even make flavoured milk by eating different foods.

Breastfeeding is also special because it helps mommies and babies bond with each other. It feels nice for babies to be close to their mommies and snuggle up while they drink their milk. And mommies feel happy knowing they are doing something very important for their babies.

In conclusion, breast milk is a very special kind of milk that mommies can make for their babies. It's yummy, healthy, and helps mommies and babies bond with each other.
