Feeding Techniques
Feeding techniques refer to the various methods used to provide food to individuals, particularly infants and young children. Common techniques include breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, and introducing solid foods. Each method has its own benefits and is often chosen based on the child's needs and parental preferences.
In addition to the method of feeding, the approach can also vary. For example, responsive feeding encourages caregivers to pay attention to the child's hunger cues, while baby-led weaning allows infants to self-feed. Understanding these techniques can help promote healthy eating habits and ensure proper nutrition during early development.
