The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends breast milk as the best nutrition for babies. Babies should be breastfed exclusively for the first six months, according to the AAP. After other foods have been introduced, the AAP encourages mothers to continue to breastfeed until baby is at least a year old, and as long after that as both mother and child are willing.
This video was produced as part of the Big Bump DVD, A guide for the mums (and dads!) of Lanarkshire offering easy to follow advice on staying fit and healthy during pregnancy and beyond. With information about exercise, breast-feeding, vitamin supplements, oral health, pregnancy screening and much more. The DVD features celebrity presenter Sarah Heaney and DJ Suzie McGuire.
