Development month by month
You’re about to embark on an amazing, exhilarating and sometimes exhausting journey with huge highs and quite a few challenges along the way.
One thing’s for sure, you’ll never forget the few months that lie in store. Before you know it, the little bundle you have now will be walking, talking and doing a whole lot more.
There are lots of fun things you can do to help introduce your baby to the world around him. From clapping hands and singing simple songs, to bath-time games and action rhymes, there are lots of fun ways you can help to stimulate and encourage your child’s development. Simple, fun-filled games and lots of conversation (even if it is one-way at first!) will encourage brain development during the critical period from birth to one year, and lay the vital foundations for future learning.

Breastfeeding is best for your baby and provides many benefits. Good maternal nutrition is important for the preparation and maintenance of breastfeeding.
Introducing partial bottle-feeding could negatively affect breastfeeding and a decision not to breastfeed is difficult to reverse. Infant Milk Formula should only be used on the advice of a health professional and the manufacturer's instructions for use should be followed carefully. Improper use of an infant milk or innappropriate foods or feeding methods may present a health hazard. The social and financial implications of using infant milks should be taken into consideration. If you choose to bottlefeed, do not allow prolonged or frequent contact of milk feeds with your baby's teeth since this increases the risk of tooth decay. Make sure your baby's teeth are cleaned after the last feed at night.
