Nutrition
For the first 6 months of life, breast milk is the only food that your baby needs to grow and be healthy.
Breastfeeding is the normal way to feed babies. Continue breastfeeding until your baby is two years old or more. The longer you breastfeed, the better it is for you and your baby.
Visit www.BreastfeedingInPeel.ca for helpful tips and instructional videos about breastfeeding.
Once your baby is 6 months old, you can start to offer him solid food.
