I don’t want to breastfeed, what should I feed my baby?
High quality infant formula is available from your local supermarket.
Keep in mind, babies under twelve months shouldn’t have:
- Regular cows milk;
- Skim, powdered, evaporated, or sweetened condensed milk;
- Dairy alternatives like soy, rice, almond or coconut milk.
In New Zealand, the manufacturing of infant formula is governed by Food Standards Australia and New Zealand (FSANZ). There are strict regulations, and all formula for sale in New Zealand will be good quality, with all the nutrients your baby needs.
