Question
Currently, large-bodied newborns cry after urinating and defecating, and they are constantly moving. Even the slightest movement can startle them. We find this quite normal. They cry when hungry and will find the bottle when it’s placed at their mouth. I would like to ask how to feed a large-bodied newborn?
Answer
These are babies weighing over 4,000 grams at birth. The cause of the disease is related to excessive maternal nutrition during pregnancy. It may be associated with gestational diabetes or genetic factors. Large-bodied newborns are more likely to cause difficult labor. The baby is normal and should be breastfed on time. The baby you described is a normal phenomenon. Avoid overeating and overeating to prevent disharmony in the spleen and stomach. Abdominal discomfort and diarrhea may occur. After feeding the baby, you should hold the baby up and gently pat the back to prevent regurgitation.
