Feeding a baby so that it thrives and is happy is one of a parent’s most difficult tasks in the first few months. It can sometimes be confusing and difficult finding out just what your baby needs, or knowing where to start. Babies do not come with a handbook or an instruction manual, so many parents will find themselves feeling as if they are ‘flying blind’, and the first few months can be a steep learning curve, and very demanding. One of your first choices is the decision to breast feed.
