Unsafe Alternatives to Breastmilk: What happens if you do?
Manage episode 452597948 series 2955590
This week on the Milk Minute, Maureen and Heather explore the risks of using unsafe alternatives to breastmilk, such as cow's milk, homemade formulas, and even introducing solids before six months. They discuss the potential health consequences, from nutritional deficiencies to developmental concerns, and emphasize why safe, evidence-based feeding options are crucial for your baby’s well-being.
With the holidays approaching, we often see babies being fed inappropriate foods for their age and developmental stage—like when grandma says, "She ate/drank the same thing back in my day and turned out just fine."
We hope this episode helps you make informed choices about infant nutrition and care, and we wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving. We’re so grateful for each of you!
