Bottle feeding 101
Some parents choose to give their baby a bottle of formula instead of breast milk. Other parents give their baby a bottle of breast milk after breastfeeding is firmly established. No matter what the bottle contains, there are several tips that parents should continue to use safe and successful bottle-feed your baby.
First, make sure the baby is using a bib to protect in case of any spills or windows spit. This will make it easier to clean after feeding. You must then cradle the baby in one arm, but make sure not to place the baby in a position of complete rest. Feeding the baby while he or she is completely horizontal, it can cause ear infections. The support arm may rely on a nursing pillow or the arm of a chair while you feed your baby.
Once you have placed the baby and yourself in the position correct, you are ready to give the baby bottle. Gently ease the bottle into the baby's mouth and allow him or her to eat. Interacting with your baby during this time talking or singing to him or her.
When the baby is finished, remove the bottle and set it aside. Now is the time of Burp the baby. It is sometimes necessary to burp your baby in the middle of a meal, especially younger women and newborn babies. To burp your baby make sure they are supporting the head, then rub the baby's back with a circular motion. Some parents prefer to gently stroke your baby in the back to belch. With practice, you will find a method that works for you and your baby.
After bottle feeding make sure to discard any remaining milk or formula and then clean the bottle. You can put glass bottles in the dishwasher for additional sanitation. Following these success tips will help you bottle feed your baby.
