Many new parents worry whether their new baby is getting enough to eat.
With breastfeeding it s particularly hard to tell because you cannot see how much your baby is eating at each meal. Most new mothers are good candidates for breastfeeding and have a strong enough milk supply to breastfeed successfully. Listen for your baby s frequent swallowing noises while feeding. This lets you know your baby is getting milk to drink. By one week of age your baby should have at least 6-8 wet diapers per day.
