A member asked:
If i eat a lot of nourishing food while lactating, could my baby be lacking in anything?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How old is baby: If baby is 6 months old or less, then no - breast milk is perfect and all the baby needs. Starting rice cereal (baby cereal) at 6 months is a good idea, but keep breast feeding too.
