The aim of this study was to find out the differences between infant formula samples and breast milk during the first year of lactation stage for the biochemical compounds. 240 samples of breast milk were collected from healthy mothers aged 18-30 (month 3-11) from breastfeeding from 44 mothers as volunteers to give fixed samples per month for analysis. Infant formal milk samples were collected from companies (Bebelac 1, 2; Similac1,2 and Guigos 1,2) from the local market in Najaf governorate. Moisture, ash, protein, lactose and fat were measured. The results showed that the differences between breast milk and Infant formula at the two periods (less than six months and beyond), where infant milk formula contain protein and fat in the first stage higher than breast milk while in the second stage, the fat percentage has decreased in the formula to become breast milk is the highest. The percentage of ash and moisture (after recovery from infant formula) was higher in infant formula than breast milk during the period of lactation (although there were no significant differences in ash). As well as for lactose, infant formula was higher during the study period with significant differences in both stages for the first year.
