Easy to take course. Videos were not too long and that helped me follow them till the end. Funny and colorful drawings in the videos make them more appealing. You get the most important information in a nutshell.

an excellent course without a doubt, in which you share experiences of your daily practice, but you also acquire skills and strategies to be able to act as promoters of breastfeeding in Mexico.

Excellent course! The information given in the course is relevant, accurate and very important for the health and future of our babies. Congratulations on the 100% Breastfeeding campaign!

I learned a lot from this course. There was so much I didn’t know prior to taking this course that I know and understand now. I thoroughly enjoyed this course! Highly recommend it!

It was very helpful, the reasons why breastfeeding is better for our babies were very clear. It definitely encourage me to give breastfeeding. Thank you so much for this course

Focused far too much on why formula feeding is bad... I was hoping for more tips and tricks on successful breastfeeding.

If someone is taking this course it is clear they are planning on breastfeeding, but this course spent 95% of its time telling you should breastfeed.

correcto para aquella mujer que ya quiera amamantar y no tenga dudas. en absoluto movilizante o cuestionador para aquella que tenga dudas o no desee amamantar. Nada útil para aquellas personas que sostienen la lactancia desde un lugar profesional...

There is nothing about the technique to breast feed and recommended times.

I was really disappointed with this course. I found it very one-sided and lacking enough information about the complications or difficulties in breastfeeding and subsequent trouble shooting for this. I understand that this course seemed tailored towards women who know nothing about breastfeeding and the benefits, but by only providing the benefits (and then shaming those who do not breastfeed) it only continues to perpetuate the shame that women feel if they are unable to breastfeed. Propaganda for formula led to the decline in breastfeeding. The answer to increasing breastfeeding rates is not more propaganda, but EDUCATION.

I am also somewhat disappointed as I was hoping for a course that was more targeted towards health professionals, but that is my mistake for not reading the course outline more carefully.

The course is not as expected or as introduced. For slightly more practical information, go straight to the last section + that short video on latching. Otherwise, the "course" heavily campaigns on breastfeeding as the right way to feed a baby, with repeated content and clips, without much regards to social and economic challenges that modern women are facing as if women can all achieve exclusive breastfeeding and easily get support from family, workplace and social system. The whole module could probably be made into one 10-min video, but then, you will likely have a better chance finding much higher quality content on Youtube these days on actually how to breastfeed.

There is 0 practical information about breastfeeding. I've never breastfed a child and I got a 100% on the final test without watching any videos, simply based on knowing what the "right" answers are. At the end of the course you get a survey from Stanford that is designed to assess your attitudes about breastfeeding. This course appears to simply be a front for this study on attitudes, and has zero actual, informative information about how to breastfeed.

Its a complete waste of time. It is not a couse - it is a long social ad that you need to breastfeed. It do not cover anything practical - techniques, schedule, tips, how to introduce real food. None.

It can be summed up in one question - Human milk is safer, healthier, cheaper and basically the best way to feed your baby. Happy that I havent paid for that.

This course has been an absolutely amazing experience! The information I've learned is truly impressive. One of the standout points for me is how the breast adjusts the composition of milk to meet the changing needs of the baby at different stages of development. For instance, during the first few days after birth, the mother produces colostrum, which is packed with antibodies and vital nutrients that help boost the newborn's immune system. As the baby grows, the milk transitions to mature milk, which is perfectly balanced to support the baby's rapid growth and development, providing the right amounts of fat, protein, and carbohydrates. Additionally, breastfeeding fosters a strong emotional bond between the mother and the baby, which is crucial for the child’s social and emotional development. The skin-to-skin contact during breastfeeding also promotes better physiological stability for the baby, including temperature regulation and heart rate stabilization. The course has also highlighted the long-term health benefits of breastfeeding, such as reducing the risk of obesity, diabetes, and certain infections later in life. I've come to appreciate how breastfeeding is not just about nutrition; it's a holistic approach to nurturing a child. Overall, this course has deepened my understanding of the significance of breastfeeding and the importance of each developmental stage in a child's life. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in the topic! It offers invaluable insights that are beneficial for both parents and healthcare professionals.

Este curso fue excelente ! Definitivamente lo recomiendo. Aprendí muchísimo acerca de la lactancia materna exclusiva y en general de la importancia de la lactancia maternal. No solo es un vínculo emocional lo que sea crea, es más que eso. Los beneficios son innumerables y realmente a pesar de que soy personal de salud los desconocía. Que importante es poder capacitarse de esta manera! No solo obtienes información para aprovechamiento profesional sino también para tu propio uso personal. Muy agradecida con esta oportunidad !

This is a succinct and clearly-relayed course that can be of use to expectant/currently-caring families and for health professionals alike (the latter to help them guide mothers towards evidence-based practices more easily). The information provided were never too much and well-deliberated. I recommend, for future iterations of this course, a detailed discussion on a list of absolute and relative contraindications to breastfeeding (including illicit drug intake, specific infections, etc.).

O curso apresenta um lindo material audiovisual preparado para fornecer informações essenciais sobre os benefícios e as dificuldades provenientes da prática do aleitamento materno, assim como dicas práticas para mães e apoiadores dessa. São diversos casos clínicos disponíveis para compreender na prática quais as dificuldades durante o processo. Um aprendizado incrível! Essencial para profissionais da saúde e familiares que buscam apoiar as mulheres durante a amamentação exclusiva.

It has been very useful to learn more about the importance of the breastfeeding process. It is crucial for new mothers and mothers-to-be to be informed about its benefits and advantages, as well as the many risks that her health and her baby’s health may be put at if decided not to breastfeed while being able to do so. I believe that breastfeeding is the very first and most important right that babies should be granted. I would definitely recommend this course.

This was a very well put together overview of breastfeeding. I am sure it would be most helpful for encouraging new mothers to breastfeed exclusively for the first six months of babies' life.

I find it quite appalling that only 40% of the worlds population exclusively breastfeed for six months. This needs to be remedied. People need to be educated on the best way to feed baby and this course does a good job of teaching that.

I have really enjoyed this course. It does not contain too much information and constantly repeats the most important thoughts. One small detail, in my opinion, question 4 of a final quiz was not quite clear because it is not mentioned who is eating those foods: baby or a mother? Thus, it is a bit confusing from which aspect to choose the right answer. Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of this course.

I thoroughly enjoyed the course and the practical test at end of each module.

I will be able to assist breastfeeding mothers during their process.

This course also reinforced the need to treat each mothers as an individual and to work with them to overcome their challenges esp. The need to identfy the skills and education needed to supprt them to continue breastfeeding even if returning to work or school

I am a Registered Nurse and Midwife working in Neonatal ICU. I found this a most comprehensive, helpful and well put together course. All mothers and all staff working with mothers and babies should do this course at least once, perhaps annually as the pressures of work can distract from the ideals. Thank you!

I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Well done! I've been taking a lot of online courses and this one had me thinking what there's one on breastfeeding? Because each lesson was on video, I was engaged and was able to get 100% on each quiz except for that one question for the history of formula that was widespread in Europe and America. Thank you for making it free!

El curso me gusto mucho realmente no es nada complicado y cualquier persona con conocimientos básicos le puede entender, realmente siempre he pensado que la leche materna es la mejor opción para alimentar a los recién nacidos y me gusto mucho ver en el curso como es que en otros lugares se hace esta práctica.

O curso é sensacional, me ajudou muito a adquirir mais conhecimento e assim ajudar mães durante os estágios obrigatórios da graduação , quanto a forma correta de amamentar e explicitar a cada vez mais a importância do leite materno para o desenvolvimento dos bebês, me ajudou muito profissionalmente.

Fathers and mothers-to-be as well as family/friends of a soon-to-be mother will greatly benefit from this course. Beautifully done videos, concise and informative presentations, and case-study style quizzes made this course a very pleasant one to complete. Thank you to all who put this together!
