Question

How much should the feeding volume be for a full-moon infant on artificial nutrition? How should the feeding be conducted?

Answer

For infants on artificial nutrition, the milk feeding volume should be adjusted appropriately according to age. In the first week after birth, feed the baby 7 times a day, with each feeding of 30 to 60 milliliters; from the 8th to the 14th day, continue to feed 7 times a day, but increase each feeding to 60 to 90 milliliters; from the 15th to the 28th day, reduce the number of feedings to 6 times a day, and further increase each feeding to 90 to 120 milliliters; after one month and up to two months, feed 5 times a day, with each feeding of 120 to 150 milliliters; after four months, feed 5 times a day, and each feeding can be increased to 150 to 200 milliliters.
