Useful information about Bottle Feeding 
It will help to ensure that the equipment you use when feeding your baby is without any potential problems:

  • The nipple can cause various problems - Check that the flow from the bottle is correct, it should flow at a rate of one drop per second. If the flow is faster or slower then the size of the nipple hole is too big or too small.

  • If the nipple hole is too small then it will be difficult for the infant to suck

  • If the nipple hole is too large then too much milk will be released 

Safety Considerations regarding Bottle Feeding: 

  • One of the advantages of Bottle feeds is that anyone can share in this pleasurable task. The close contact is essential for the baby's development and well being. A baby should never be left unattended with a bottle

  • Bottles of formula can be prepared in advance and refrigerated. Never use any prepared bottles which are more than 48 hours old

  • Bacteria can develop if the formula is not refrigerated. Never use bottles that have been out of the refrigerator for more than 3 hours

  • All equipment must be thoroughly cleaned and then sterilized before use

Useful information about Breast Feeding
Some useful information about breast feeding:

  • Many babies are hungry every two hours. Breast-feed every 2-3 hours or on demand

  • Milk production - The more your baby breast feeds the more milk you will produce

  • A healthy diet. You need 400 to 500 more calories than you did to maintain your pre-pregnancy weight.

  • Drink at least eight, but no more than 12 cups of liquid a day

Useful information about Solid Feeding
Some useful information about solid feeds:

  • Diluted Juices are introduced at the age of 1 month

  • Undiluted Juices are introduced at the age of 2 months

  • Introduce semi-solid foods at the age of 4 months or weighs 6kg or by the age four months

  • First introduce rice cereal at 4 months

  • Introduce mashed fruits at 4-5 months

  • Introduce mashed vegetables by 5-6 months

  • When solid feeding is established ensure a daily intake of 500 -750ml milk

  • Introduce Yolk of egg by 6 - 7 months

  • Introduce minced meat and fish by 9 - 10 months
