"I'll bring the baby to you for feeding."

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in this situation your first and only response should be "I'll bring the baby to you for feeding". This is because after the birth of the child, the client needs to decide how much participation they want to place in the neonate's care. Therefore if the client wants to feed the baby then they should be allowed to do so.
