Doctors Kurt and Sarah Bjorkman, a board certified pediatrician and OB/GYN, use this week's episode to go in to detail about how much babies need to eat for normal growth and development. This episode is for both breast and bottle feed babies, and also provides information to help you know if your baby is getting enough to eat, what signs they might show you before crying that they're hungry, and what you should do if you are worried your baby isn't getting enough to eat.
