The man behind the icon, Gilbert Baker, joined q guest host Talia Schlanger on Friday to share six things you may not know about the six-colour flag. With the help of several members of the Grove Street gay community centre in San Francisco, Baker hand-stitched and hand-dyed the very first rainbow flag in 1978.
Feed your newborn on demand. 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.
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.
