It feels like your little one is constantly on the move and life is a never-ending game of chase... With so many milestones approaching in your toddler's development, this week we'll be offering you top tips on nutrition and feeding to help your little one master every stage.
You and your baby
Month 13 news
Picking things up, dropping them, passing them between hands... Your little one is certainly the most dexterous they've ever been.
The Expert View
Your little one has probably tried lots of different new foods by now - but in all the excitement, are they getting what they need? Guidelines suggest that toddlers should have 2-3 portions of dairy per day to support their bones. If they don't like milk, try cheese or yoghurt.
In all of the chaos, it can be hard to stop and just appreciate how far your little one has come - and the journey they still have ahead. This month, we'd like to show you a video that details the amazing journey of toddlerhood. So sit back, relax and enjoy.
It's important to keep your growing toddler active. Ask your health visitor or local NCT groups for toddler exercise classes to keep your little one social and mobile!

IMPORTANT NOTICE: The best way to feed a baby is to breastfeed, as breast milk provides the ideal balanced diet and protection against illness for your baby and also many non-nutritional benefits for both baby and mother. We recommend that you speak to your healthcare professional when deciding on your choice of feeding your baby. Professional guidance should also be sought on the preparation for and maintenance of breastfeeding. If you do choose to breastfeed, it's important to eat a healthy, balanced diet. Infant formula is intended to replace breast milk when mothers choose not to breastfeed or if for some reason they are unable to do so. A decision not to breastfeed, or to introduce partial bottle-feeding, will reduce the supply of breast milk. If for any reason you choose not to breastfeed, do remember that such a decision can be difficult to reverse. Using infant formula also has social and financial implications which must be considered. Infant formula should always be prepared, used and stored as instructed on the label, in order to avoid risks to a baby's health. SMA® PRO Toddler Milk and SMA® PRO Growing Up Milk are suitable for young children from 1-3 years, as part of a healthy balanced diet and these are not a breast milk substitute. SMA® Organic Growing Up Milk is suitable for young children from the 12th month, as part of a healthy balanced diet and it is not a breast milk substitute.
