Key takeaways
In this podcast you will learn about:
- GPs Are Central to Feeding Support
As the only healthcare professionals consistently involved throughout the 1000-day period, GPs play a pivotal role in guiding families through mixed feeding decisions and practices.
- Confidence and Knowledge Gaps Exist
Survey data reveals that many GPs feel underprepared to advise on mixed feeding, highlighting the need for targeted education and practical tools to improve clinical confidence.
- Safe, Unbiased Guidance is Essential
Parents often rely on formula packaging for advice due to limited support. GPs can help bridge this gap by offering timely, evidence-based information on safe formula use and breastfeeding support.

Important notice and declaration
Breast milk is best for babies. Professional advice should be followed before using an infant formula. Introducing partial bottle feeding could negatively affect breast feeding. Good maternal nutrition is important for breast feeding and reversing a decision not to breast feed may be difficult. Infant formula should always be used as directed. Proper use of an infant formula is important to the health of the infant. Social and financial implications should be considered when selecting a method of feeding.
