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.
Newborn babies need quite small amounts of formula to start with. By the end of their first week, most will need around 150 to 200ml per kilo of their weight per day until they are six months old. This amount will vary from baby to baby. Although most babies settle into a feeding pattern eventually, they vary in how often they want to feed and how much they want to drink.
