Feeding Your Baby
Feeding is more than just filling them up. It’s about understanding their cues and making sure they’re getting enough. Whether you’re breastfeeding or using formula, there’s a lot to learn.
Some things to keep in mind:
- On-demand feeding is usually best. Feed them when they seem hungry, not just on a schedule.
- Watch for signs of hunger like rooting (turning their head and opening their mouth), sucking on their hands, or fussiness.
- If you’re breastfeeding, get help from a lactation consultant if you’re struggling. It can make a huge difference.
