Breast milk is a natural food for babies, rich in nutrients, contains immunoglobulins to increase the ability to fight diseases, and has a moderate temperature, hygiene and convenience. As a mother, for the healthy growth of her child, she should overcome all difficulties and give her child as much milk as possible. However, there is no scale or measuring cup for breastfeeding, so many new mothers are anxious about how much their baby has eaten. Although there is no way to accurately measure the amount of breast milk your baby sucks, there are ways to know if your baby is getting enough. Usually the sucking time of a breastfeeding session should last about 15 minutes. If there is enough lactation and the baby has enough sucking power, the amount of milk for a meal can be satisfied in this time. If one breast is empty, you can nurse the other side until you have enough. If the baby is full, they will show a very satisfied expression, the whole body is quiet, pleasant and comfortable, and they can go to sleep soon. If they are not full, they will also show a lot of signs. For example: pursing their lips, licking their tongues, smacking their lips, sucking their lips, eating their hands, crying and restlessness ……, if the baby appears so the mother should pay attention. Breastfeeding patterns Establishing breastfeeding patterns is a very important part of ensuring adequate milk supply. A newborn baby has not yet established a feeding routine and is mainly nursing on demand, but it is very important to establish a breastfeeding pattern as early as possible in order to ensure adequate milk supply. The frequency of nursing for newborn babies is 1.5-3 hours, gradually ensuring 8-12 nursing sessions every 24 hours. Your newborn baby may sleep for a long time, so make sure you don’t have to wake up more than 3-4 hours to nurse. As the nursing pattern matures, the sleep rhythm is gradually developed and a pattern is formed for each hunger, so that the most adequate amount of milk is obtained each time you nurse.
