Nutrition
In terms of nutrition, the best option is to breastfeed your new born if possible. Your baby needs only breast milk for the first 26 weeks, as it contains all the necessary fluid and nutrients. Breast milk also helps to protect your baby from infections and disease and will be sufficient in ensuring your baby develops at the normal rate.

From around six months, you can start to introduce other foods into your baby's diet. Every baby is different, but generally by 12 months, he or she should be eating a variety of different foods from all of the food groups. A healthy, balanced diet is important as it helps to prevent illness, and is a key factor when it comes to growth and development. Consultations can be scheduled with Dr. Dukhi to discuss advice on feeding practices as well as to discuss any parental worries and concerns.
