Feeding a baby is a time-consuming job, especially in the early months of life. Often, these moments are sweet bonding opportunities. But, other times, a bit more efficiency is helpful. If you’re juggling a lot in your life—like tending to older kids’ needs, going back to work or just taking care of the tasks that are part of adulthood—finding feeding products that can make your job a bit easier can make a big difference. For many parents, the back-to-school season is a big reminder of how multitasking is occasionally necessary. When older brothers or sisters are getting out of class at a certain time, you might need to be a bit more flexible with your baby’s feeding schedule. But, considering newborns aren’t known to be the most patient, that might mean needing to find the products and tools that simplify feeding on the go. Our advice?
