Patient's question:
Baby is 2 months old and only drinks 600-700ml per day via bottle. Is that not enough? I haven't learned much about it before and would like to understand more.Doctor's answer:
Hello, this needs to be related to the baby's complementary foods. Generally, at eight months, the baby can have three to four breastfeedings per day, and it's also important to add complementary foods in a timely manner. Because at this stage, the nutritional value of breast milk gradually decreases and needs to be supplemented with complementary foods to meet the baby's developmental needs. Hello, according to your description, considering the baby's age, the baby should be breastfed on demand (meaning, as soon as the baby wants to be fed, it should be fed immediately). It's generally around three months that you can start to cultivate the baby's feeding habits. Thank you.
