Patient's question:
What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? How can you determine if the baby is getting milk from breastfeeding?Doctor's answer:
Here are the translations as requested:From the following points, you can be sure your baby is getting enough milk:
- Daily, they will have 6 to 8 very wet diapers and 2 to 5 bowel movements.
- As they get older (after 6 to 8 weeks), bowel movements may decrease, possibly to once a day or every 3 to 4 days, but you can still check if they are getting enough milk from their wet diapers.
- Their weight will increase by an average of 4 to 7 ounces per week or 1 pound per month (453 grams).
- Although most babies gain 4 to 7 ounces per week, it doesn’t have to be the same every week—sometimes they gain more, sometimes less, and that’s normal.
