Feeding a baby after 6 months - QAP et al. www.qaproject.org/strat/stratHIVjobaids2.html#brochures
This brochure addresses questions that mothers may have regarding how to feed babies who, after six months, are beginning to eat semi-solid foods. HIV-positive women, the brochure notes, should consult a healthcare provider to determine whether it would be best to give another type of milk in place of breast milk. It points out that after 6 months, babies need to gradually begin eating a variety of foods and gives information on types of foods, as well as correct consistency and amounts, to give to babies aged 6, 7-8, 9-12, and 12-24 months. The brochure gives instructions for safe food preparation and storage and covers a range of other points.
Developed for Tanzania.
