Although many mothers do a lot of homework about parenting during preparation for pregnancy or even during pregnancy, it is still inevitable for novice mothers to be flustered. For example, when breastfeeding, they always cannot figure out how many times to breastfeed or how many times to feed their baby when he is hungry. So, how many times should a baby who is not yet one month old breastfeed in a day?
In the first few days of a baby's birth, feeding can be calculated based on the baby's weight. 100-120 milliliters of milk need to be fed per kilogram, plus the total amount of water consumed after mixing. Divide this number by the number of times the baby is fed 7-8 times a day to obtain the amount of milk needed for each meal. This is the feeding amount calculation method for babies before 15 days old.
When it is 15 days to full moon, it is possible to drink milk without adding water, and the feeding amount is still calculated based on the baby's weight, which is about 100-150 milliliters per kilogram of body weight. Each meal requires about 60-100 milliliters to be eaten. New parents can allocate the number of times they drink milk each day and arrange the feeding time according to the total feeding amount and the feeding amount per meal.
The amount of breastfeeding for babies varies at each stage, and novice mothers may not have a lot of knowledge in this area due to lack of experience. Therefore, if there are any problems, they can search online or consult professional nursing institutions to ensure the healthy diet of their babies.
