May 2015: Updated feeding information in the 4 month and 6 month parent information sheets

We have updated and clarified the wording in the parent information sheets for 4 month and 6 month infants in the Feeding & Growth section. This is due to the release of new literature including Nutrition for Healthy Term Infants for 6 – 24 months. This recommends a more flexible start date for solids based on infant readiness, as well as no delay beyond 6 months in introducing potentially allergenic foods to prevent allergy.

The 4 and 6 month pamphlets are now dated May/15. While the rest are dated Dec/13, the information is still considered up to date.
