Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. How many night feeds do newborns typically have?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, breast milk is usually fed every two hours. When the baby is full, they will automatically pull out the nipple, and when they are hungry, they will show sucking reflexes. The mother should pay close attention. For some mothers who breastfeed and have children who are particularly fussy, the most common advice they receive is to switch the child to formula feeding. Many mothers who follow this advice find that after switching to formula feeding, the child still cries incessantly. Not only that, but they also realize that they have lost the closeness they had with the child while breastfeeding.
