How I Feel I get excited when I m having fun everything is a game to me. I cry and get mad when you stop paying attention to me or take a toy away. Fathers as Caregivers Today, with more mothers working, more fathers are becoming involved in the care of their babies. In some one-parent families, the father is the main caregiver for his child. There s no question that fathers can form close relationships with their babies.
Fathers can love, guide, teach and nurture their babies.
Feeding Your Baby After four to six months, your baby will be ready to eat solid foods in addition to breast milk or iron-fortified formula. When to Feed Increasing numbers of doctors recommend that babies not be given solid food until at least 4 months of age, and preferably that parents wait until 5 or 6 months to begin feeding cereals and other solid foods. Therefore, semi-liquid, mushy foods should not be given to your baby before she can sit up with support, or has some head and neck control. Also, feeding solids too early in life may lead to overeating and obesity. Check with your health care provider before beginning solid foods.
