Baby feeding log: what to record
A practical baby feeding log with a printable table and blank CSV. Record nursing and bottles without turning the day into a rigid schedule.
Write down the feed, not a target
Start with the date and time, then the type of feed. For nursing, record the side and duration if useful. For a bottle, write the amount actually taken and the unit, such as mL or oz. Keep offered and taken amounts separate if you record both.
Keep the notes useful
A short observation can be more useful than a perfect-looking chart. Note a pause, a top-up or a detail you want to discuss with your pediatrician. If you add an entry later, record the time the feed happened rather than the time you typed it.
Use one record across caregivers
Choose one place for the record so a partner can check the latest entry without asking you to remember. Record pumping separately: milk expressed is not a feed the baby has taken. This log does not tell you how much or how often your baby should eat.
A blank record to start with
Print this page using your browser, or download the CSV and open it in a spreadsheet. Add rows as you need them. The template is a record, not a feeding schedule or a medical assessment.
On a small screen, scroll the table sideways to see every column.
| Date | Time | Feed type | Side / duration / amount | Logged by | Notes |
