Baby Food & Formula Prep
There's so much to learn when bringing home a new baby. Whether you're starting your child on newborn formula, breastfeeding, or transitioning to solid baby food, you'll need a range of food prep and storage solutions. You can find them at Macy's, along with all the other baby gear & essentials you'll require during your baby's first years. We're here to help you streamline your feeding routines with a few suggestions on how to make mealtimes go smoothly.
Baby-Feeding Basics
Even if you're breastfeeding, you'll need items like baby bibs, burp cloths, and bottles. Bottles aren't just for baby formula; they're also a convenient way to store expressed breast milk when you're not nearby to nurse. Have you already started your baby on infants' first foods? Then you already know that meals can get rather messy. Whether you're giving your child baby food pouches or spoon-feeding, a good infant placemat is a must. Look for one that's flexible, wipes down easily, and can go in the dishwasher if needed. Baby placemats are usually compatible with high chairs. However, it's a good idea to double-check the highchair tray and placement dimensions to ensure it will fit before purchasing.
Infant Food Storage Containers: Store More, Waste Less
Are you trying to create less mealtime waste? You'll want to rely on clever storage solutions that preserve baby food freshness. Reusable infant food jars made from glass or plastic allow you to see what's inside. Other types of storage containers, like silicone puree storage molds, are ideal for freezing larger quantities of homemade baby food. Food storage bowls with lids are another popular choice for parents. The wide opening allows instant food access and makes clean-up simpler. Glass food jars sterilize well, while plastic and silicone are lightweight, less expensive, and freeze nicely. Always clean them carefully and choose BPA-free containers whenever possible.
