This microbiota is all of the bacteria present in our intestines. The establishment of a balanced microbiota is essential for the child\u2019s health and for the development of natural defences in particular1<\/sup>.<\/p>

When a baby is born by caesarean section<\/strong>, it is delivered through the mother\u2019s abdomen, not her vagina. As a result, it does not come into contact with the mother\u2019s bacteria, but with bacteria from the outside world. These bacteria are fewer and less adapted to the needs of the baby.

Yes! Antibiotics are prescribed to eliminate certain disease-causing bacteria. However, repeated antibiotic treatment may also destroy some or all of the good bacteria and therefore disrupt the balance of the intestinal microbiota6<\/sup>.
