Babies are born knowing when they’re hungry and when they’re full, and their hunger can change from day to day or even hour to hour. By learning and listening to your baby’s hunger and fullness cues (i.e. feeding them when they're hungry and stopping when they're full), you can trust they will get the nutrition they need to grow. Responding to your baby's cues also teaches them to eat when they're hungry—not because “it’s time”—and lets them know that you are there to keep them safe and sound.
