In the first chapter of a baby's life, most of the first month is spent in sweet dreams. However, by the second month, the baby's world began to be gradually filled with food! Whether breast-feeding or milk powder feeding, babies' food intake has increased. As a mother, mastering these key time points is the key to ensure the baby's gastrointestinal health.

Feeding on demand

Babies' food intake has increased significantly, and feeding on demand has become particularly important. About 600-700 ml of milk every day, divided into 6-7 times, with an interval of 3-4 hours each time and 80- 100 ml each time, which is the source of motivation for their growth. Please customize your baby's meal plan according to their characteristics.

The principle of breastfeeding

The principle of breastfeeding is still irregular and quantitative, so that the baby can enjoy the nourishment of maternal love. With the increase of baby's stomach capacity, their demand for breast milk is also increasing. Therefore, there is no need to set strict time for breastfeeding.

Regular feeding

Babies usually need to breastfeed every 1-2 hours and sleep for 4-5 hours. All this is so irregular. When the baby cries and wants to eat milk, please don't limit their breastfeeding time and try to meet their needs. It is more appropriate to keep the breastfeeding time at 10- 15 minutes each time.

Nutritional components of breast milk

From the second month to nine months after delivery, the nutritional components of breast milk will gradually mature. During this period, although the content of protein and minerals in milk is lower than that in colostrum, the content of carbohydrates remains stable and the fat content gradually increases, providing sufficient energy for the baby.
