By 1 to 2 months of age, a breastfed baby will probably nurse 7-9 times a day. Before your milk supply is established, breastfeeding should be on demand (when your baby is hungry), which is generally every 1Â½ to 3 hours. As newborns get older, they'll nurse less often, and may develop a more reliable schedule.
1. Stick with breast milk or formula. Breast milk is the ideal food for babies â with rare exceptions. If breast-feeding isn't possible, use infant formula. Healthy newborns don't need water, juice or other fluids. Most newborns need eight to 12 feedings a day â about one feeding every two to three hours. Look for early signs of hunger, such as stirring and stretching, sucking motions and lip movements. Fussing and crying are later cues. The sooner you begin each feeding, the less likely you'll need to soothe a frantic baby.
