The best way to feed your baby is to breastfeed. Breastfeeding provides many health benefits for both you and your baby, such as protection against illnesses, improved cognitive development, and reduced risk of obesity later in life. It also helps establish a strong bond between you and your baby. If you are unable to breastfeed or choose not to, formula is an acceptable alternative. However, it's important to ensure that your baby is getting enough nutrients through other sources like solid foods.
