The Nigerian Womans Guide to Feeding Babies and Toddlers , written and reviewed by a team of paediatric and nutrition experts -- is a complete nutrition guide to breastfeeding, formula feeding, complementary feeding, handling picky eaters and food allergies.

The book in seven chapters guides every caregiver on what he or she needs to know about infant and young child feeding. The book opens with the very basics of nutrition - the different nutrients required by the body, their functions, their sources and how much of each is required in the different stages of the early years. This is followed by chapters covering how the baby grows and develops, and various aspects of feeding including breastfeeding, formula feeding and complementary feeding. Most babies and toddlers are not able to fully vocalise their needs, so caregivers will also appreciate how the book covers reading young childrens hunger and satiety cues. It continues with a discussion of the practical ways of dealing with challenges that may be experienced with young child feeding, such as colic, gastrointestinal challenges, fussy eaters and even going back to work as a caregiver.The last chapter provides guidance on menu planning for infants and homemade Nigerian recipes for toddlers.

This book simply offers guidance on best foods for every age and stage to help your child establish a healthy regular eating schedule. If you are overwhelmed by the choices of when, how, and what to feed your baby, reach out and get your copy to access organized, practical, and up-to-date guide on feeding your child from birth until toddlerhood.

In summary, this book answers all your relevant questions about child nutrition in plain and simple language.
