Usage snapshot:
- Emojis convey ideas, emotions, or objects in messaging and interfaces; meaning depends on context.
- Appearance can vary across platforms, apps, and fonts, so designs may differ in color, style, and detail.
- Use emojis thoughtfully in UI and text; keep intent clear and avoid ambiguity in formal content.
- If a platform lacks color emoji support, a monochrome or text‑style fallback may be shown.
- For accessibility, ensure surrounding text conveys the intended meaning.
History & usage: The BREAST-FEEDING emoji depicts the act of feeding an infant. In messages, it can signal topics on infant care, lactation, or parenting. In apps or UI, use it to tag content about breastfeeding, maternity services, or mother‑baby health without ambiguity. In documentation or help text, it can illustrate guidance related to feeding or caregiver support. When platform designs differ, the emoji may appear with color or as a monochrome glyph; designers should test it in target apps. For accessibility, provide surrounding text that clearly conveys the meaning, so users who rely on assistive tech understand the intent.
