Dear Student,

Ans a. Breastfeeding is considered healthy for the baby. Hence, the elders are right in advising breastfeeding for new-born babies. 

Ans b. The first mother milk is called colostrum. Which is yellow in colour and contain the antibodies like IgA, IgM and IgG. So, the mother's milk provide the immunity to the infant. Apart from providing immunity, it is very nutritious, rich in protein and low in fat content.

Ans c. Such women are unable to breastfeed their new-born babies due to their hectic work schedule. They are also unable to give enough time due to excessive workload. 

Regards
