Baby Feeding Through the Stages


Baby feeding does not need to be a big mystery. In fact, it can be some of the most wonderful times of the day for both you and your baby. Through the stages of babyhood, you can find different little joys to dwell upon and recall fondly. There is the infant, so content in his mother's arms, looking into her eyes; or the impish toddler who won't eat her peas unless you use her special airplane spoon. Each day you can create a lifetime of memories that you can lock away in your heart and treasure forever.

Newborn - Feeding your newborn can be a joy, but it can also be a little scary if you are not accustomed to the baby ways. However, baby feeding at this stage is more cuddling while they nurse on the breast or bottle than it is anything else. Enjoy this time with your baby. Relax, put your feet up and take pleasure in this special time that you and your baby share.

When you need those bottles, nipples, bottle warmers and liners, come here and see what's available. We also carry breast pumps so that nursing mothers can get away and have a little "mommy alone" time.

Infant - At this stage, baby is sitting up, perhaps even crawling and demands more than just a diet of breast milk or formula. This is when you introduce a little cereal into the mix. Baby feeding can get a little messy at this stage as you introduce spoon feeding and allow her the occasional arrowroot cookie. At first he may wind up with more on him than in him but he'll get the hang of it! It's a good thing that babies are washable!

This is a time when bibs, bottles and baby spoons are new and exciting for baby - and for you. Find the best selection of baby spoons and the cutest little bibs at feedingbaby.net.

Toddler - Baby is getting mobile! Your toddler is eating an array of foods and probably some off of your plate at dinner as well. That high chair that you got as a shower gift will really come in handy during this stage! Beware though, this is a stage where baby decides to break away a little and become more independent. You may find that baby feeding is a little more challenging as baby wants to feed herself, or rather demands to feed herself!

Feedingbaby.net has everything that you need from toddler spoons and forks to sectioned dishes that stay put. You can also find high chairs and mats as well as sippy cups to make feeding baby oh so much easier!

Youth - They can wield a spoon and fork like a pro, but the still need kisses for boo boos. Yep, baby is getting older and more independent. Where did the time go? It seems that just yesterday you were bringing an infant home from the hospital and now you have a youngster who sits in a booster chair, says his ABC's and can feed herself. Now baby feeding isn't some much "mom oriented" any longer. Your "baby" can now probably even help with the dishes, at least putting them in the dishwasher anyway.

You can still depend on feedingbaby.net to have the things that your young child needs. From silverware sized for little hands, to "big kid" cups and dishes, your little one can eat "just like the grownups!"

It seems that babies whiz through these baby stages. They do grow up so fast. It may seem that on some days you are wading through an endless stream of bottles and nipples or that your breast pump is permanently attached to you. Then you move right into special spoons that can disrupt dinner completely if they go amiss and sippy cups that can magically soothe a distraught toddler.

Each baby feeding stage is special with its own wonder and joy, so slow down and take time to enjoy them all. One day you will look up and you will be handing that baby the car keys and they will be out the door. They do grow up so fast, but they'll be your baby forever.
