Patient's question:
Milk powder, my family says it's because they're eating too much. Most children cry after sleeping well, and they only stop crying when they're given milk. It's roughly between 60 to 110 milliliters each time. Before discharge, the doctor said it was about once every three hours, which is about eight times a day. But now...Doctor's answer:
Changing diapers 9-10 times a day is normal.Advice:
1. For newborns and infants, "on-demand feeding" means what? It means as long as the little one needs to be fed, you should feed them. The baby will cry when hungry, and after being breastfed, if they stop crying and show signs of enjoyment, that means you are feeding them properly. So, the frequency of changing diapers in this case is not very high;
2. Regarding bowel movements, it's also normal for infants to have many bowel movements daily. Of course, pay attention to the shape of the stool—whether it contains milk curds, mucus, or is very runny, etc.;
3. Under such diaper-changing conditions, it's still important to visit the healthcare center regularly to check how the little one is growing and whether it's ideal.
Doctor's inquiry: Of course, I'm referring to normal full-term newborns! So, it's basically normal.
