Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy4 years agoA. you have to give only breastfeeding to the child till completion of 6 months of age and before 6 months of age if you are giving any type of outside Food or complementary feeding it can cause digestion problem in the child.
no need to give water also because breast milk contains 80% of water and water also is given after six months of age only
first of all meet your doctor and get the weight of the child assessment done.
if the weight gain of the child is within normal limits as well as the urine output is normal then do not worry about the feeding pattern, the sleeping pattern and the crying pattern of the child.
your doctor is the best person to tell you whether any outside milk is required or not until that time kindly continue only breastfeeding.
Author of questionGuardian of a 4 yr 3 m old girl4 years agoA. my baby demands feed every one hour..only feeds for 5 to 10min, pee's twice every hour and poops once or twice a day.
as soon as she pees she wants to feed and starts crying.
i am in doubt i have enough breastmilk to feed my baby. is my baby getting enough feeding?
Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy4 years agoA. stool frequency may vary and feeding should be in demand that is whenever the child wants feeding the child can take feeding and the urinary frequency should be around seven times per day
