My classmates called again two days ago and asked, "How come a baby who eats breast milk can cry at night?". I asked again in detail. It turned out that she listened to the old saying, "You don''t need to feed your breast milk, you haven''t fed a sip of water in the past ten days."

　　First of all, whether it is breastfeeding or The key to mixed feeding or pure milk feeding is to fill the baby with water. The total body fluid of infants accounts for 70%-80% of body weight Because of the vigorous metabolism of children''s body fluids, water shortage can often occur, and sometimes children cried and irritated at night, not necessarily because of hunger, but because of thirst. Therefore, water should be fed frequently during feeding intervals.

　　 For example, breastfeeding time is generally at 6 am, 10 am, 2 pm and 6 pm, 10 pm and midnight. Then, the feeding time can be set at 8 am, 12 noon, 4 pm and 8 pm.

　　Each time the amount of water is related to the age of the month, 30 ml in the first week (2 small cells in a small bottle), 45 ml in the second week (3 small cells in a small bottle), 60 ml in a month (small 4 small bottles), 3 months 75 Milliliters (5 small cells for small bottles), 90 ml for 4 months (6 cells for small bottles), 105 ml for 6 months (7 cells for small bottles), and 120 ml for 8 months or more (8 cells for small bottles).

　　At this point, it is also necessary to observe whether the baby has secretions in the corners of the eyes. When there are secretions, it is also an important manifestation of insufficient water supplementation. Hope our moms don’t care!
