Breastmilk is the best for babies. The World Health Organisation recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life. Unnecessary introduction of bottle feeding or other food and drinks will have a negative impact on breastfeeding. After six months of age, infants should receive age-appropriate foods while breastfeeding continues for up to two years of age or beyond. Consult your doctor before deciding to use infant formula or if you have difficulty breastfeeding.​

Frequently Asked Questions About C‑Section Children and Cesarbiotik

What is the difference between C-section and normal delivery children?

Children born via C-section may have differences in gut bacteria compared with vaginally born children.1 Evidence shows this gut imbalance can still be associated with C-section birth at one to four years old.1

Why do C-section born children need extra gut support?

C-section born children may have less beneficial gut bacteria.1 Delayed gut colonization in childhood may have long-term health impact,2,3,4 and differences in gut diversity can last up to five years old.1

How is gut health connected to my child's immunity?

Up to 80% of immunity begins in the gut. A healthy gut microbiota helps support your child's natural defences, especially in the early years when immunity is still developing.

How does Aptamil Profutura KID CESARBIOTIK support C-section born children?

Aptamil Profutura KID Cesarbiotik contains a high level of B. breve M-16V probiotic, carefully selected from 400 strains, and is scientifically shown to support immunity by increasing bifidobacteria, lowering gut pH and improving stool consistency.5

No. It is scientifically formulated for C-section born children, but is also suitable for all children. It is designed with higher probiotic and prebiotic levels to help restore gut dysbiosis and support immunity for C-section born children.1 Speak to your doctor or the Aptamil expert team if you are unsure.
