A. Hello my dear parent! Ideal milk intake should be around 150 ML per KG weight. That is if your child is around five kgs. Then the minimum milk intake should be 750 ML per day. Continue feeding your baby well on demand for better health, nutrition, hydration and weight gain. Burp your baby after every feeding session, give goid tummy time day. You can try using Babyhug tummy roll on to reduce the discomfort
