Hunger Cues & General Tips

Recognizing Hunger Cues:

Hand-to-mouth movements and sucking on fists
Increased alertness and fussiness
Smacking lips or sticking out tongue
Crying (usually a late hunger cue)

Feeding Best Practices:

Feed on demand, responding to baby's cues
Ensure baby is fully awake during feeds
Burp baby midway and after feeding
Maintain skin-to-skin contact when possible
Track wet/dirty diapers (6+ wet diapers daily is good)
