    Breast milk secreted by mother in first few days after child birth is called as Colostrum in English and Piyush in Sanskrit.

Ask if the a mother feeds colostrum/Piyush to the newborn and you can predict the future of the baby. Whether the baby will live,2 if the baby will have illnesses,&3 if the baby will grow well. If she gives him/her colostrum/Piyush, the baby is more likely to survive, have less illnesses, & grow well. If she does not give him/her colostrum/Piyush, the baby is more likely to have illnesses, can even die,& if he /she survives he/she will have problems in growing well.

This adds to sickness and deaths of newborns.These babies can become hungry,get fits due to less sugar in blood,&
If all mothers feed cholostrum/Piyush to their babies, more babies will live, more babies will have less problems, more babies will grow well.

(Please see) : Learn from animals. Their babies, as soon as they are born start suckling. Similarly the Breast crawl cd. By BPNI (brest feeding promotion network of India) shows that a baby put on mother’s chest immediately after birth moves & crawls.The baby’s mouth finds and reaches mother’s nipple & baby starts suckling.This must happen 100% times every where where bbies are born.
