How much should I feed my baby?

It’s a question we hear all the time at Tiny Turtle:

“How much food should I be feeding my baby?”

“How do I know they’re getting enough?”

The good news is the answer is simpler than you might think.

Babies are surprisingly in tune with their own needs. They’re born with the ability to regulate their food intake, which means they’ll usually stop eating when they’ve had enough. Instead of focusing on portion sizes or how much is left on the plate, try tuning into your baby’s cues.

Signs that your little one is full might include:

🐢 Turning their head away
🐢 Pushing the spoon or food away
🐢 Losing interest or becoming distracted
🐢 Slowing down or stopping eating altogether

Every baby is different—and every day can be different too! Some days they’ll eat more, some days less, and that’s completely normal.

At Tiny Turtle, we believe in helping you feed your baby with confidence. Our nutrient-packed, portion-friendly meals are designed to support your baby’s hunger cues while making mealtimes easier for you.
