A. Hello dear parent! Try as much to awake your baby well before time and feed your baby. Maintain a good personal hygiene for your baby. Continue breastfeeding your baby well on demand for better health, nutrition and hydration. As long as your baby is active and healthy, passing adequate urine 6 to 8 times in a day then nothing to worry.
