Question
The baby has been crying and not eating much lately. How should I bathe the baby with a navel?
Answer
Based on your description, this seems to be a question about bathing a baby with a navel. Generally, you should cover the navel before giving the baby a bath. Additionally, you should pay attention to personal hygiene, maintain rest and warmth, and provide easily digestible and absorbable food. For newborns, breastfeeding should be on demand; feed the baby when they are hungry. Babies cry when they are hungry, so there’s no need to worry that they don’t know when they are hungry. Babies have small appetites and don’t eat much, and they defecate frequently, so they get hungry quickly and need to be fed often. For such young babies, it’s not necessary to worry about how much they eat daily; you should feed them according to their needs, not a schedule.
