Breastfeeding is the best for babies and a healthy diet / maternal nutrition is important when breastfeeding. A decision not to breastfeed can be difficult to reverse. Infant formula is suitable from birth when babies are not breastfed. It is recommended that all formula milks be used on the advice of a doctor, midwife, health visitor, public health nurse, dietitian, pharmacist, or other professional responsible for maternal and child care and the financial implications should be considered. All preparation and feeding instructions should be followed carefully as inappropriate preparation could lead to health hazards.

"You may start taking maternal milk as soon as you realized you are pregnant. Maternal milk will provide you with the necessary nutrients needed for your pregnancy. It is important to include a maternal milk supplement such as Mamil® Mama with PreciNutri™ during your pregnancy as it provides you with 100% of your daily folic acid requirements, 60% of your daily calcium requirements and 65% of your daily iron requirements during your pregnancy. Moreover, it is a sucrose-free formula which is healthier and could prevent the unnecessary weight gain during your pregnancy.
