6. Important Notice
Breast-feeding is best for your baby, and a healthy balanced
diet is important for you when breast-feeding. A decision not to
breast-feed can be difficult to reverse, whereas continuing to
breast feed will maintain a healthy supply of milk. The
introduction of partial bottle-feeding will reduce the supply of
breast milk. An infant formula should be used on the advice of a
doctor or healthcare professional, and the cost and any social
implications of using an infant formula should be considered when
deciding how to feed your baby. Inappropriate foods or feeding
methods can be harmful to your baby's health. If an infant
formula is used, all the preparation, storage and feeding
instructions should be followed carefully, as this is important to
your baby's health. Follow-on milks are not breast milk substitutes
and are suitable for babies from 6 months, as part of a weaning
diet.
Until they are six months old, your baby will get all the
nourishment they need from milk. Current advice from the Department
of Health is to breast feed exclusively for six months. At this
point most babies will be ready to start taking solid food, but ask
your GP or healthcare professional for advice if your baby was born
prematurely.
Signs your baby is ready for weaning include:
Showing an interest in what you are eating, or even reaching out
for the food on your plate
Being less satisfied with milk, for example crying after a full
milk feed
Demanding increased or more frequent feeds
Waking up hungry in the night when they were previously sleeping
through.
- Weaning before six months
All babies are different and develop at different rates. Your
baby may start to show signs they are ready for weaning earlier
than six months. If this is the case and you think your baby may be
ready to start solids, speak to your healthcare professional who
will be able to advise you. Babies under 17 weeks should not be
given solid foods.
