cord infection is due to moisture... keep the cord area dry.. my dr advised me betadene powder for the cord infection.. <br>
you can talk to your dr about it.

baby is just 24 days old... there are many people to mislead that you are not getting sufficient milk.. it will be on a very rare case..<br>
dont come to any conclusions right now... <br>
just observe your baby... <br>
pee count is more than 7 times a day..<br>
gaining the weight then everything is normal..<br>
during the 1st.month babies weight is not increased too much..<br>
you can see alot of difference from 3 month onwards. <br>
so just relax..

If baby is latching well, pee count is more than 6-8 times in 24 hours and atleast 500 gm weight gain in 1 month, then u do not have any supply issue. If you are still confused or anxious then do see a Lactation Consultant.

hello... can you please mention baby's birth weight and present weight... after birth usually baby loses weight up to 15-20days, but your baby has gained weight up to 500 gms... it is a very good sign.. if baby poo n pee is in normal count then no need to worry about feed.. he is having good feed and so the output.. and feed baby every 2nd-3rd hourly and also on demand.. i dont think he is in need of formula..
