Fluids are a vital part of pregnancy.
Almost a quarter of weight gain during pregnancy is comprised of liquids. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that infants be fed human milk or iron-fortified infant formula until 12 months of age. Children 1 - 2 years should be fed whole cow's milk. Children ages 1-3 should get 500mg of calcium each day. If you have questions about privacy and the Internet, please click here to view our Privacy Statement.
