Is giving your infant as much food as they want within reason, reasonable? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

My partner feeds them a fine amount but occasionally I will feed them more as they’re still hungry then they nap for 2-4x longer. Is this potential food comma healthy? They exhibit no unhealthy signs and are happily eating until they refuse food, so they recognize their own fullness

Yes. Some think it's good as it teaches them to self manage eating based on body signals like hunger and satiation rather than just eating what's in front of them and eating due to emotional reasons. Look into division of responsibility eating.
