    Default PROPER FEEDING TECHNIQUE!!

    This video, of Costa Rican member stosh feeding his adorable baby Luna, is an excellent example of correct feeding technique. Please watch, note, and remember:

    * 1cc syringe, until babies are at least 5-6 weeks old, eyes open

    * Baby is held upright - after eyes open they may be fed on all fours if they prefer, on a table or your lap. ALWAYS keep one hand on the baby.

    * syringe is angled approx. 45* UP toward baby's mouth

    * feed SLOWLY....allow baby to swallow....push, then wait
