A. If you are a new mother who is breastfeeding, it is natural to be concerned about whether your baby is getting enough milk for their growth and development. One of the best ways to assess this is through monitoring your baby's weight gain and overall health. If your baby is gaining weight steadily and has plenty of wet and dirty diapers, this is an excellent sign that they are getting enough milk. Additionally, if your baby seems content and happy after feedings, this is also a positive indicator. Remember to trust your instincts and reach out to your healthcare provider if you have any concerns. You're doing a great job!

A. Signs your baby is getting enough milk Your baby's cheeks stay rounded, not hollow, during sucking. They seem calm and relaxed during feeds. Your baby comes off the breast on their own at the end of feeds. Their mouth looks moist after feeds.
