Good hydration for your baby

Pay attention to providing your baby with proper hydration by following a few rules.

  • Remember to hydrate your baby in the summer as well as in the winter.
  • Your baby's body is 75% water, so it's important to help them stay well hydrated.
  • It is estimated that between 100 and 150 ml per kilo per day should be given.
  • Your baby needs water that is nitrite-free and not too rich in minerals. Vary the mineral waters and spring waters.
  • From birth to 6 months, your baby's needs are covered by breast milk.

Can I give my baby pedialyte for hydration since she canā€™t drink water yet? She will be 5 months on Friday. When she had her MRI they gave us pedialyte in case she couldnā€™t take her bottle so I know sheā€™s allowed to drink it. I just wanna know if she can take it for hydration cus it be hot asf and I feel babies be just as thirsty as we do.

So I have two boys and this is my third pregnancy and with my first two I was very sick I couldn't hold water down, I was puking up blood, and had to go to the ER frequently for IV hydration. My boys also had low heart rates in the 140-150 zone. With this pregnancy I am eating like crazy, and although I'm nauseous I haven't actually puked at all and the baby's heart rate is 176 I go in for gender blood test tomorrow but I'm curious what you guys think. Do you think these significant differences in this pregnancy could indicate that I may finally have a baby girl?

Did anyone else have stretch mark pain on their tummy after giving birth? I donā€™t know how else to word it. It just feels like my skin is being torn/ripped still, or pins and needles, but the babyā€™s not inside stretching it anymore. I tried putting lotion and belly oil on to see if hydration helps. #postpartum

Could just be recovery for two weeks my belly was so sore and at times felt like tearing. I would get shooting pain if I bent over and even at 6 weeks I still have that issue sometimes but not as bad. Now if you are buckling over in pain from the pain I would call your doctor to get seen.

Thank you my love. I'm praying that's my situation. My doula and midwife told me to drink at least a gallon of water to slow my cramping. I found out yesterday I have a UTI. I've also been constipated. So put UTI pain, constipation and bloody show together lol. I'm a hot mess just trying to hydrate and pray baby is staying put. So far so good though. I really appreciate your comment.

Baby will be 6 weeks next week-Iā€™m still having issues with my breast milk. Iā€™ve tried teas, hydration, etc. He latched good and I wish I could provide more but heā€™s still hungry afterwards and drinks his formula. I pump maybe 1 oz or less from both sides. Iā€™m eating like crazy, Iā€™m hungry all day! I had lost 10lbs when I had my baby and now I gained them all back. I just feel like breastfeeding isnā€™t working out for me. Anyone have any suggestions on what I should do?
