What should I do if my newborn keeps eating and stopping

Presumably, in daily life, many new mothers will always encounter such a problem when feeding their babies. During the feeding process, the baby will always stop eating, and sometimes even fall asleep while eating. However, the sleeping time is very short, and after waking up, they start to feed again. So, what should we do when facing the situation that the newborn baby keeps eating and stopping?

1. When the mother has insufficient milk. During breastfeeding, if the mother's milk supply is insufficient and the baby's milk cannot meet the needs when sucking, the baby will automatically stop sucking. For this problem, when the baby is sucking milk, you should pay attention to massaging the breasts to ensure that the baby has sufficient milk during the feeding process.

2. In the case of artificial feeding. When this problem occurs during the baby's artificial feeding process, it is necessary to ensure that the nipple hole is of appropriate size. That is to say, before feeding the baby, you need to make sure that the bottle is turned upside down so that the milk can drip out quickly drop by drop.

3. Under feeding conditions. When the baby has the problem of intermittent feeding while being breastfed, it is mostly because the feeding method is inappropriate. Pay attention to let the nipple be filled with milk during feeding, not half milk and half air. This will easily cause the baby to inhale air and cause hiccups, and also cause sucking fatigue.

After the above experts have given you a detailed introduction to the situation and solutions for newborns who keep eating and stopping, I believe that many new mothers should now know how to deal with the situation of newborns who keep eating and stopping. I hope the above introduction can be of more help to many friends who are first-time mothers.
