© UNICEF HK/2014 (Chinese version only) 香港，2017年3月15日──近日社會上再有就「餵人奶？餵奶粉」作出討論，身為聯合國兒童基金香港委員會（UNICEF HK）大使郭晶晶表態支持母乳媽媽，並希望各界為父母提供正確資訊及社會支援，令爸爸媽媽可為BB作出最佳的餵養選擇，給他們健康的好開始。 晶晶直言，在香港做母乳媽媽一點也不易，奶粉廣告多不勝數，部分更有不實宣稱，誤導父母，更令大眾曲解母乳餵哺，減少對母乳媽媽的支援。她說：「當年我生完BB，身邊的朋友都問我會用哪種奶粉餵孩子，很多朋友受奶粉廣告影響下，以為奶粉與母乳一樣好，甚至更好！所以我想即使有些母親希望餵母乳，還是會給身邊的人問東問西，得不到理解。我知道UNICEF HK推岀了『Say Yes to Breastfeeding母乳育嬰齊和應』運動，讓母乳媽媽得到更多社區支援，但我認為確保市場上的嬰幼兒餵養資訊真確，也一樣重要。當媽媽、身邊的親友以至社會都對母乳餵哺有正確的理解，就會有更多人支持母乳餵哺，也會鼓勵更多媽媽開始及持續接受餵母乳。」 晶晶又指，自己不僅是母乳媽媽，也是吃母乳長大的，深知母乳能為嬰兒提供最佳營養及保護孩子的健康： 「母乳中有很多抗體，是奶粉不能取代的。我和我兒子的身體很健康，而我也希望更多香港寶寶的生命也能有健康的好開始。」 晶晶曾於2014年曾率領近30位母乳媽媽及寶寶向食物及衞生局局長高永文醫生遞交聯署意見書，就港府推行規管配方奶不良銷售手法的《香港配方奶及相關產品和嬰幼兒食品的銷售守則》表達訴求。 – 完 –
