Feeding Baby

Having a new baby is one of the most amazing times of your life, but it can also be a challenge!

To help, our nutritionists and dietitians have pulled together some articles featuring feeding advice and nutritional explanations according to different age groups that are relevant to your baby’s growth and development.

This way you can read about the stage your baby is in today and even read ahead so you stay prepared. Remember if you need clarification, always contact your Plunket nurse or Well Child Health provider.

Why is so iron important for baby?

Iron is an essential mineral that babies need so that they can grow and develop normally. It is found in every cell in the body and helps to carry oxygen in the blood stream to all parts of the body, where it is used as energy.

Time for Solids: Is my baby ready?

There is no exact time when all babies are ready to start solids. All babies are different but the good news is your baby will start to 'show' you when he or she is ready.

What to Expect When Your Baby Starts Solids

Remember that learning about foods and eating is a whole new experience for your baby, so it may not be all plain sailing, but that’s entirely normal!
