Question
For the past two or three days, my baby has been drinking milk every four to five hours, but each time the amount is not much, about 60 to 70 milliliters, and sometimes even only 40 to 50 milliliters. A few days ago, the baby could drink milk every two or three hours, and the amount was more, about 80 to 100 milliliters. How should I handle this situation?
