One Month

One Month Breastfeeding Tips:

  • Baby will continue to soak 6-8 diapers per day

  • Stooling pattern slows down to 1-2 large stools daily, may skip days

  • Baby’s alert time increases

  • Usually nurses 8-10 times in 24 hours

  • Time spent at the breast is less as baby becomes more efficient

  • Attend a La Leche League Meeting https://www.lllct.org/ or https://lllny.org/

  • Recommended reading: “The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding” by La Leche League International

  • Now that breastfeeding is well established, an occasional bottle of your breastmilk can be introduced if desired
