Infant Nutrition 1
Slide 2-

These: Breast milk Iron-fortified infant formula, including soy-based formula Instead of These: Fruit juice Cow’s milk, lactose-free milk or nutritionally equivalent nondairy beverages such as soy or rice milk for infants less than 12 months (unless medically necessary) 2 Infant Beverages Dr i nk
Slide 3-

Breast milk: Meets all nutritional needs of an infant and promotes health and development Protects infants from many illnesses and diseases including diarrhea, respiratory disease, SIDS, allergies and ear infections Reduces the risk of childhood obesity Is associated with improved mental development 3 Infant Beverages
Slide 4-

Iron-fortified infant formula: Is an acceptable alternative to breast milk and is specially formulated to have the right balance of nutrients Includes iron which is a very important nutrient during the first year Does not protect infants against illness and disease as well as breast milk 4 Infant Beverages
Slide 5-

Fruit juice: Provides less nutrients and fiber than whole baby food fruits and vegetables because of what is lost when juice is processed Drinking too much may be linked to becoming overweight or obese and is associated with tooth decay and diarrhea Cow, lactose-free, soy and rice milk do not contain the right amounts of nutrients infants need and can harm their health 5 Infant Beverages
Slide 6-

How to feed with a bottle Hold baby & bottle during feeding Why propping a bottle is not allowed Choking, suffocation, ear infections, tooth decay, less cuddling & human contact Do not let baby carry bottle around Tooth decay, drink too much, share bottles, liquid spoil, glass bottle can break 6 How to Feed a Baby Using a Bottle
Slide 7-

Preventing Tooth Decay Baby bottle tooth decay or early childhood caries caused by: Babies with teeth fall asleep with bottle in mouth Babies who drink from bottle (or sippy cup) with juice, sweet liquid, formula for long periods 7
Slide 8-

To prevent tooth decay: Feed only breastmilk or formula from a bottle No juice in bottle, only in cup; do not feed more than 4 ounces of juice/day Bottle only at feeding time, not naps No bottles in crib, playpen, no propping If pacifier, only plain, nothing on it Do not use cold bottle of juice for teething pain Do not let baby carry around sippy cup 8 Preventing Tooth Decay
Slide 9-

To prevent tooth decay (continued) No water with honey, sugar, or corn syrup, soda, sweet iced tea, juice drinks, or other sweet drinks in bottle or cup Do not feed sweet or sticky foods Gradually shift bottle feedings to cup feedings between 6 and 12 months Discuss cleaning baby’s teeth/gums with parents/providers 9 Preventing Tooth Decay
Slide 10-

Do not introduce solid food and fruit juice before 4-6 months because it may lead to: a decrease in the intake of breast milk or formula choking, digestive problems, food allergies or intolerances 10 Feeding Solid Foods
Slide 11-

Do not wait to introduce solid foods later than 6 months because it may lead to: the inability to accept different food textures reduced motor development (e.g. chewing) decreased nutrient intake 11 Feeding Solid Foods
