Human: I'm a new mom. What do I need to know about feeding a baby? Assistant: 

1. Start by consulting with your pediatrician or healthcare provider for advice on the best type of food for your baby, as well as how often and how much to feed them.
2. Make sure you are giving your baby nutritious foods such as fruits, vegetables, grains, and proteins in appropriate portions.
3. Be consistent with your feeding schedule and make sure to offer your baby a variety of foods from different groups every day.
4. Don't forget about snacks! Offer healthy snacks between meals and throughout the day so that your baby is getting enough energy and nutrition.
5. Try to avoid sugary drinks like soda and fruit juice since they can be high in sugar and calories.
