Question 2

Recognizing Your Baby's Feeding Cues

Accepted Answer

Following your baby's lead when it comes to their hunger. Look for actions such as rooting reflex, chewing or sucking on their hands or fingers. 
 
Early feeding cues or signs such as stirring, mouth opening and closing, turning their head or seeking/rooting, indicate the best time to feed.

Signs your Baby is Full

Your baby:
 • looks sleepy and calm
 • lets go of the nipple
 • closes his mouth
 • turns away from the bottle
 • may still have small sucking movements, this is a reflex and does not mean your baby is hungry
If you see signs your baby is full, stop feeding. Do not put your baby to bed with a bottle. Holding your baby skin to skin before and after feeding is a great way to bond with each other.
