A newborn should be put to the breast at least every 2 to 3 hours, and he or she should nurse for at least 10 minutes on each side.This will help to ensure that the baby is getting enough breast milk at each feeding, and it will also allow enough time to stimulate your body to build up your milk supply.
Nursing mothers need to drink plenty of fluids. Water, juice, and other nonâdairy beverages, such as soymilk, are good choices. In addition to your usual fluid intake, nursing mothers should drink as much liquid as your baby takes from you. One way to do this is to drink a glass of water or soymilk 10 to 15 minutes before feeding your baby. Or sip from your glass while your baby nurses.
