4. The Order of Hachansas Lacheder-The Areinfirinish: [1]
A. Fasting: [2]
Some write that it is proper for the parents, both father and mother, to fast on the day of the Hachanasa Lecheder, and after the conclusion of the fast they should make a celebratory meal for paupers.[3] Practically, it is no longer customary to fast on the day of the Hachanasa Lecheder.[4]

[1] To note that in the Sefer Keiytzad Nechaneich Yeladeinu the order of above is slightly different: 1st: Draping the Tallis is omitted, teaching from Tanya is omitted, rather it starts with teaching from an alef beis chart. It is only smeared with honey at the end.
