In December, John Wines bought a scratch-off lottery ticket at a gas station in Roswell, New Mexico. As he started scratching, he came across multiple winning numbers totaling over $500,000. However, the maximum prize for the ticket is $250,000. âThereâs one right here for $250,000.
At birth your babyâs stomach is size of the cherry, and it can only hold 0.1 to 0.2 ounces (5-7 ml) of milk. This is the reason you must constantly feed your newborn. The stomach grows very quickly each day, and by day 3 the stomach is a size of of a walnut and can hold 0.8 to 1 ounces (22-27 ml) of milk. By day 7 your babyâs stomach is a size of an apricot and can hold 1.5 to 2 ounces (45-60 ml) of milk. By one month old your babyâs stomach is a size of large egg and can hold 2.5 to 5 ounces (80-150 ml) of milk.
Your newborn will nurse about 8 to 12 times per day during the first weeks of life. In the beginning, mothers may want to try nursing 10-15 minutes on each breast, then adjust the time as necessary. Breastfeeding should be on demand (when your baby is hungry), which is generally every 1-3 hours. As newborns get older, they'll nurse less often and have longer stretches between feedings. Newborn babies who are getting formula will likely take about 2-3 ounces every 2-4 hours. Newborns should not go more than about 4 to 5 hours without feeding.
