No evidence suggests giving butter to babies helps them sleep better, she says. Offering butter in chunks also can be dangerous, especially if babies aren't ready for solids. "Let's stick to safe, evidence-based feeding practices that support your baby's health and development."
"I can totally see why parents would be taken in by it," says Dr Nina Jane Chad, a research fellow at the University of Sydney and an infant and young child feeding consultant for the World Health Organization. But butter is unlikely to make a baby sleep through the night, "and there could be some harms involved" for young infants, she says. [...] "There certainly isn't any scientific evidence that a big dose of butter or fats or calories is likely to help with night-time sleep," agrees Dr Fallon Cook, a paediatric sleep practitioner and director of Infant Sleep Australia.
