hello mam how can I know my newborn getting sufficient bm

A. Ensuring your newborn is getting sufficient breast milk (BM) can be assessed through several signs: 1. **Wet Diapers**: Your baby should have about 6-8 wet diapers a day, indicating they are getting enough fluids. 2. **Stool Patterns**: Newborns typically pass stool several times a day, though this can vary. Consistent bowel movements suggest they're getting adequate milk. 3. **Weight Gain**: Regular weight checks are crucial. Newborns generally regain their birth weight by 2 weeks and continue to gain weight steadily. 4. **Feeding Frequency**: Newborns usually feed 8-12 times a day. Regular feeding sessions can indicate they're getting enough milk. 5. **Contentment**: After feeding, your baby should seem satisfied and content. If they're fussy or constantly wanting to feed, it might be worth checking if they're getting enough milk. 6. **Breast Changes**: Your breasts should feel softer after feeding, indicating that milk has been consumed. 7. **Baby’s Alerts and Activity Levels**: A well-fed baby will be alert, active, and have good muscle tone. If you're concerned about your baby’s intake, consulting with a lactation consultant or pediatrician can provide personalized guidance and reassurance.
