Consider the following scenarios and think about the advice that you would offer each mother.

A mother of an eight-month-old baby is looking at the follow-on milks and wants to know why she can’t give her baby cows’ milk.

Consider:

• How you would explain to her how formula milks are different to cows’ milk

A mum of a 10-month-old is looking at the supplements fixture and wants to know what vitamins, if any, she should be giving her baby.

Think about:

• What questions you would ask her
• What advice you would give if she is feeding her baby follow-on milk
• What advice you would give if she is breastfeeding.
