If you are able, breastfeeding is best for babies. It has benefits for both the mother and the infant, such as protection against illness. It is important to have a healthy balanced diet in preparation for, and during breastfeeding.
Infant formula is designed to replace breast milk when an infant is not breastfed. Breastfeeding can be negatively affected by introducing partial bottle-feeding, and reversing a decision not to breastfeed is difficult.
Infant formula must be prepared and used as directed. Unnecessary or improper use of infant formula, such as not properly boiling water or sterilising feeding equipment, may make your baby ill. When selecting a method of infant feeding, financial and social implications should be considered.
Please consult your healthcare professional if you have any concerns about feeding your baby.
