Question
The baby has been crying a lot recently and doesn’t eat much. How should I adjust the feeding method for the baby?
Answer
Mothers should not rigidly schedule feedings for their babies; instead, they should feed according to the baby’s needs. Especially in the first few days after birth, the frequency of feeding should be increased to meet the baby’s demands and also help with the secretion of prolactin, which in turn increases milk supply. In summary, don’t wait until the baby is very hungry before feeding.
