The manifestation of a baby not having eaten enough before bedtime

  Eating night milk is a habit for many babies. To successfully quit night milk for babies, mothers will first give them a full meal before going to bed. However, there are still many novice mothers who do not know what it looks like for a baby to be fully fed. So today, let's talk about the behavior of a baby who hasn't eaten enough before going to bed.

  

The manifestation of a baby not having eaten enough before bedtime1

  1. Generally speaking, the time for a baby to breastfeed is about 20 minutes, and the sound of the baby swallowing milk can be heard. If the mother finds that the baby has been breastfeeding for half an hour and the sound of swallowing milk gradually decreases, it means that the mother's milk is not enough for the baby to eat, and the baby is not full.

  2. If a baby is hungry, tired, or sick, they will cry incessantly. So when babies are not full, they will keep crying and making noise. If the mother approaches the baby, the baby will open its small mouth to look for milk to eat.

  3. Once a baby is not full or extremely hungry, their sleeping time will significantly decrease, and they will be particularly lethargic. If a baby experiences this situation, it means that the baby is hungry, and the mother should breastfeed the baby in a timely manner to alleviate this condition.

  4. In general, if a baby eats enough and sleeps well, their weight will show an upward trend. If the baby's weight not only does not increase but also decreases, it means that the baby is not full. The mother should add milk powder to the baby appropriately, and if it is time to add complementary foods to the baby, it should be added in a timely manner.
