Is it normal for baby not to poop for 2 to 3 days ?

I tried guiding baby to poop but no luck. Worried about her digestion.#advicepls #firsttimemom

I guess your baby's coming two months old? They have a pattern whereby either every feeding baby will poo or two to three days later will poo. And the day baby poo, it can be two to three times. Otherwise if this worry you do bicycle exercise for baby, massage, tummy time after every feeding for 10 mins. It helps with neck strength as well as digestion. Sometimes tummy too much wind or gassy therefore their decision process differs.

How much to feed 6 weeks old?

Hi mummies, can I check how much do you feed your baby when about 6 weeks old going to 7 weeks soon? My son currently on formula milk feed 75ml every 3 hours, is that Ok? Pls do share... TQ

Yes that's fine unless you do BF direct latch then that's like 20 to 45 mins depending on baby's milk intake. For FM that's fine with interval of 3 hrs gap.

Axe Oil smell too “spicy” for LO?

I’m co-sleeping with my baby. However, I was having bad headaches so I applied Axe Oil (Feng You) on myself. But baby started making weird sounds. Is the smell bad for them? Will the smell be too “spicy” for them?

When did you stop swaddling your baby?

I tried stopping swaddling my baby after 1 month and notice she gets startled easily or have Moro reflexes in her sleep but when we swaddle her, she seems to wriggle to get out of it and the weather is so hot and humid.#advicepls #pleasehelp

My baby hates to be swaddled so we stop after a week. Now i change to velcro type and yes it’s normal to get startled, it will get better in time

How much milk should my baby drink?

My baby is 17 days old. Weighing around 3.3KG-3.5KG. How much milk should he be drinking per feeding? I’m currently feeding him 75ML-80ML but he seems to wake up every 1.5hours and cry for milk. He used to wake up every 3 hours at 65-70ML. It’s getting more frequent now. Should I increase the intake again? Am feeding him BM in the day and FM at night.

You can try to increase 5-10ml each time to see how much he can take. Cause there is no standard amount, have to twerk around and adjust based on your baby. If you’re worried about wasting the bm, offer bm first then top up with formula to gauge.
