Nutrition for babies

Breast milk is the best nutrition for babies. Exclusive breastfeeding is recommended for the first 6 months of your baby's life. Breastfeeding can also continue during and beyond the introduction of solid foods.

When you are breastfeeding, good nutrition is vital for you and your baby. Continue with the healthy diet you were following during pregnancy and try not to skip meals.

Combining breast and bottle feeding can affect your breast milk supply.

If you decide not to breastfeed, this decision may be difficult to reverse if you change your mind.

For further advice on feeding options, always contact your health visitor or midwife.
