The World Health Organisation recommends that breastfeeding is best for your baby.
Having a balanced diet when breastfeeding is also important. Baby formulas should only be
used after you’ve sought advice from a doctor or health practitioner.
A decision not to breastfeed can be difficult to reverse and introducing partial bottle
feeding may reduce the supply of breast milk. It is also wise to consider the cost of infant
formula.
If you use infant formula, all preparation and feeding instructions must be followed as per
the manufacturer’s instructions. This is important for your baby’s health.
