Babies are at a greater risk for food-borne illness than older children or adults because of immature immune systems. So, whether you use commercial formula or food or make your own, follow this advice from the Alberta Home Economics Association's Food Safety Info Line when preparing to feed little ones
Did you ever think you'd have so many questions about such a small person? Well, you're not alone. Most first-time parents prepare well for childbirth, taking at least 12 to 14 hours of classes for an average 18 to 24 hour labor. But how much preparation have you had for the 157,680 hours of parenting you'll experience over the next 18 years? … Yikes! No wonder you're overwhelmed some days!
Everyone expects a few tears after the birth of a baby. First come the tears of joy as parents gaze in amazement at their new creation. Then come the occasional tears of frustration born from the constant demands of a newborn.
You have a unique opportunity when you choose what to feed your baby.
Your decisions can help provide the healthiest start possible to your baby's life!
