Breast-feeding and artificial infant feeding in all-month-old infants suffer from nutritional anemia paragraphs ,It's no statistical significance,all P>0.05. Six months after birth, artificial feeding infants' the prevalence of rickets was significantly higher, significantly higher than the breast-feeding infants, both P<0.05. Since the 42 days to 24 months after birth, artificial feeding infants suffering from infantile diarrhea rate was also higher than breast-feeding infants, both P<0.05. From the beginning of 3 months after birth, artificial feeding on infant pneumonia was significantly higher than the incidence of breast-feeding infants, both P<0.05. In smart development, 42 days after birth, there are no difference, all P>0.05.between the breast-feeding infants and the artificial feeding infants .from 3 months to 24 months after birth, breast-feeding children in language and gross motor, two major categories of projects in various sub-items were significantly higher than artificial feeding infants all P<0.05.The survey also showed that infants and young children from 12 months since high levels of education and in science, education, health care of working mothers, infants and young children in language, fine motor and gross motor development in a significant better than the other infants and young children ,P <0.05 .
