A. Sure, here's a condensed version: 1. **Weight Gain:** Regular weight gain after the first week is a good sign. 2. **Nursing Frequency:** Newborns should feed every 2-3 hours or 8-12 times per day. 3. **Diaper Output:** At least 6 wet diapers a day and 3-4 stools a day in the first month. 4. **Swallowing Sounds:** A "suck, swallow, pause" pattern should be audible during feeding. 5. **Post-Feeding Satisfaction:** Your baby should appear content after feeding. 6. **Breasts Feel Different Pre/Post Feeding:** Full before, softer afterwards. 7. **Baby's Behavior:** Alert, active, and eager to feed babies are typically well-fed. Reach out to a healthcare provider or lactation consultant for any concerns.
