nursing
Breast milk is very important for babies. Breast milk develops the mind and body, and fosters communication skills. Breast milk contains many components that are essential for the growth of the baby, is easy to digest and absorb, and boosts immunity. When a mother breastfeeds her baby, her body recovers. Our hospital is in the same room and bed as the mother and child, so you can breastfeed at the pace of each baby. In addition, we have a track record of breast care, and you can consult with us immediately about how to breastfeed and breast problems.

- Frequent breastfeeding is carried out immediately after calving.

Meals during hospitalization
A mother's diet after childbirth is very important for physical recovery and breastfeeding. At our clinic, we prepare meals that are gentle on the mind and body, focusing on seasonal vegetables. Some people who have been hospitalized say, "I don't want to leave the hospital because the food is too delicious!" If you have allergies, please let us know.
