Answer to Question 1

Provide breast milk or iron-fortified formula as the baby's primary source of calories. Do not start the baby on cow's milk until after this first year. Avoid honey and foods containing food allergens. Supplement the diet with vitamins K and D and sources of iron or iron-fortified foods. Introduce solid foods gradually and only after all the developmental milestones have been observed. Avoid providing too much fiber and excessive amounts of fruit juice.
