Didache 7:7 and thou shalt order him that is baptized to fast a day or two before.

Just curious. Do you not feed the babies for a day before they are baptised also?

Didache 7:6 - "before the baptism let him that baptizeth and him that is baptized fast, and any others also who are able.

The Didache is a Catechism for adult converts. Infants aren't capable of fasting.
