Question
The newborn was born at 8 pm yesterday, and drank 5 ml of milk at 3 am. Until 3 am today, the third day, the baby has not eaten anything, only sleeps during the day, and cannot be woken up by calling. The mother gave birth to a full-term baby at 37 weeks and 4 days via normal delivery. The baby’s stool is very sticky, there has only been one urination, and the baby has not cried or fussed; it has been sleeping during the day. Is the baby not feeling well somewhere?
