Is a weight gain of 30g/day normal? Abnormal? Midwives teach you how to tell the difference

"My baby seems heavier than yesterday, is this normal?"

Newborn weight is a question many moms have.


In fact, there are several changes in a baby's weight during the first month after birth:

There is an important pattern to be aware of.


First, your baby will lose weight temporarily from immediately after birth through the 3rd to 5th day after birth .


This is called "physiological weight loss"

A loss of 3-10% of birth weight is completely normal.


Why does this happen?


Before a baby is born, it floats in amniotic fluid inside the mother's womb.

When you go out into the world, excess water in your body is expelled.

The baby also passes meconium (the first stool after birth), which causes a temporary weight loss.



After that, once breastfeeding gets on track,

The weight gain will be 25-30g per day .


From about one week after birth,

This steady increase pattern typically begins.


When I heard the figure "30g/day increase,"

Some mothers worry, "Is it okay for the baby to gain so much weight?"



However, this is evidence that your baby's brain and body are developing rapidly .


A newborn's brain grows by about 2g per day.

Muscles and bones also develop at an incredible rate.


This means they require more nutrients and calories than adults can even imagine.



To determine if your weight gain is on track:

Please check the following points:



Measure at the same time and under the same conditions every day (before breastfeeding, after changing diapers, etc.).



Don't get too excited or upset about short-term fluctuations, but look at the trends over a week.


Baby's mood, breastfeeding,


It is important to make a comprehensive judgment, taking into account the excretion situation.



If you don't gain weight for more than a week, or if you gain weight too quickly,

Please consult your pediatrician.

However, in most cases, there is no need to worry.


With the words "A baby's growth is its individuality" in mind,

The most important thing is to watch over them calmly.

[Q&A Part 1] The Complete Guide to Breastfeeding Basics

The Truth Behind the Every 3 Hours Myth

Correct criteria for determining breast milk, formula, and mixed milk

Is it okay to breastfeed every hour?

Q: My baby only has an hour between feedings.

Is this normal?


A: Yes, feeding your newborn every hour is completely normal.

Rather, frequent breastfeeding plays an important role in promoting milk production.


The "every three hours breastfeeding" rule that is written in many childcare books is

In fact, this is a guideline based on formula feeding.

Breast milk is easily digested and is expelled from the stomach within 1-2 hours.

The baby will feel hungry again.



Q: How do I know if my baby is getting enough breast milk?

A: You can tell by the following signs:

Urinating more than six times a day.

The baby is pooping at least once a day (after one month of age, once every few days is normal) .

The baby looks satisfied after breastfeeding.

Weight gain of more than 150g per week.

If these conditions are met, your baby will have enough breast milk.



Q: Which is better, formula or breast milk?

A: Both are important sources of nutrition for babies.

The important thing is that mom and baby can

It's about choosing a way to keep going .


Breast milk contains immune substances

It helps protect your baby from infections.

It also promotes uterine contractions in mothers,

It also aids in postpartum recovery.



On the other hand, milk has stable nutritional content.

Another benefit is that dads and other family members can also participate in breastfeeding.


In addition, you can visually check the amount of milk being fed,

It often leads to a sense of psychological security for the mother .



In reality, many moms combine breastfeeding with formula.

I chose mixed feeding .


This is no compromise,

It is one of the most suitable options for modern childcare environments.



There is no right way to breastfeed.

The important thing is to choose a way that will make mom smile .



Rather than breastfeeding while feeling stressed,

It is better to breastfeed in a relaxed state of mind.

It has a much better effect on the baby too.




Rather than aiming for "perfect breastfeeding,"

Please practice "loving breastfeeding."


That feeling is the best nutrition for your baby.

38°C vs. 40°C bath temperature debate finally settled

Seasonal temperature settings and baby cry prevention

Bathing Techniques Complete Edition

"So, which is the correct bathing temperature: 38 degrees or 40 degrees?"


We will clearly answer this question based on both scientific evidence and practical experience.


In fact, there is a deep reason behind the "38 degrees vs. 40 degrees" debate.


A baby's skin is only about half as thick as an adult's .


It is very sensitive to temperature changes.

Just a difference of 2 degrees can make a big difference for your baby .



As a general rule, the ideal temperature is 38-39°C in summer and 39-40°C in winter.


But this is not enough.

The important thing is to understand "why that temperature is what it is."


Babies have a higher body temperature than adults

My normal body temperature is 37-37.5 degrees.


When bathing, a temperature 1-2 degrees warmer than body temperature feels most comfortable.


This is where seasonal factors come into play.




In the summer, when the room temperature is high, heat tends to build up, so 38 degrees is sufficient.


On the contrary, 40 degrees is too hot and makes the baby uncomfortable.

It will cause you to cry.


In winter, when the room temperature is low,

Even if it's 40 degrees, the temperature drops the moment you get out of the bath.


That's why you need to start with a slightly higher temperature.


Now, I'll teach you some bathing techniques that will keep your baby from crying.


First, it is important to prepare before bathing.


Keep the room temperature between 75-78°F (24-26°C) and keep towels and a change of clothes within easy reach.


To avoid sudden temperature changes,

Prepare a basin of slightly hot water.



When bathing, slowly place your feet in the water.

Do this while saying, "It feels good."


Babies use the tone of your voice to determine whether they are safe or not.


When washing your face, wash gently with your hands instead of using gauze.


Gauze creates too much friction,

Not suitable for delicate newborn skin.



When washing your hair, lather the shampoo well in your palms, then

Wash your scalp by massaging it.


There is no need to cover your ears at this time.


With the right water pressure, water rarely gets into your ears.


Bath time should be limited to 5-10 minutes, including washing your hair and body.

Long bath time can drain your baby's energy.

This can cause you to feel cranky after getting out of the bath.


Finally, when you finish washing your body,

Use the slightly hot water you have prepared.


This will prevent your baby from catching a chill after bathing and keep them comfortable.


If you think of bathing as an important time to communicate with your baby ,

I can interact with nature with kindness,


Your baby will also be able to relax and enjoy the bath.

Complete guide to timing newborn diaper changes

Is 15 times a day too much?

Baby boy pee measures and

Efficient exchange method saves time on childcare

"I change diapers 15 times a day,

Is this too much?”


Many moms have questions about how often to change their newborn's diapers.



In fact, the normal range for newborn diaper changes is 10-20 times a day .

15 times is never too many.



Why do newborns soil their diapers so often?


A newborn's bladder is very small and can only hold 30-50ml .



Also, because the kidneys are not yet fully developed, children urinate frequently and in small amounts.



As for feces, breast milk and formula are digested quickly,

3-8 times a day is completely normal .



There are some points to keep in mind when changing diapers, especially for boys.



The moment you open the diaper, urine may come out with great force .



This is a natural phenomenon called the "ejaculatory reflex."

It occurs when exposed to cold air.



As a countermeasure, you can wait a little while before opening the diaper,

As soon as you open it, put tissue or gauze in it to protect it from pee.

It is effective if you apply it lightly.



Here are some steps to change a diaper efficiently:


First, make sure you have everything you need within reach.

New diapers, wipes, a soiling bag, and barrier cream if needed.



Before removing the old diaper, unfold the new diaper halfway.

Place it under your baby's bottom.


This also allows for sudden bowel movements.



When wiping your bottom, wipe gently from front to back.



To prevent urinary tract infections, especially in girls,

Be sure to follow this direction.


For boys, do not forcefully pull back the skin of the penis.

A light wipe of the surface is sufficient.



When putting on a new diaper,

Raise it up to a position that covers the baby's belly button,

Apply the tape symmetrically.


Ideally, it should be neither too tight nor too loose.

A good guideline is to have enough space for one adult finger.



To prevent diaper rash, change the diaper as soon as it gets soiled.

It is important to dry thoroughly before putting on a new diaper .


"Frequent diaper changes may seem like a hassle,

We believe that this is important care to keep your baby comfortable.

Do it with love.

Scientifically regulated sleep rhythms for newborns

At what age will a baby's day and night reversal be corrected?

The truth about babies sleeping 15-18 hours

The secret to creating a natural rhythm

"My child sleeps well during the day, but his eyes get wide open at night.

When will life return to normal?”


Newborns' day-night reversal is a problem that troubles many mothers.

But there is a scientific reason for this.




Before a baby is born, inside the mother's womb

I was sleeping and waking up in short cycles of about 90 minutes.



Also, during the day when the mother is active, the swaying of the amniotic fluid makes the baby sleepy,

He was active at night when his mother was resting.



Although newborns sleep for a very long time (15-18 hours a day) ,

They sleep and wake up repeatedly in short intervals of 2-4 hours.


This is a natural phenomenon called "polyphasic sleep."



Babies begin to distinguish between day and night around 6-8 weeks of age.

It usually takes 3-4 months for the condition to fully stabilize.



Here are some practical ways to create a natural rhythm in your life.




First of all, the most important thing is to use the right light .

I always open the curtains between 7 and 8 in the morning to let in natural light.

The lights will be dimmed after 8-9pm.



This is because a baby's internal clock is regulated by light.



How you spend your daytime is also important.


When breastfeeding, do so in a well-lit area and talk to your baby actively.


Walking and sunbathing by the window are also effective.

Avoid direct sunlight and expose to indirect light.



When feeding at night, keep lighting to a minimum.

Do this gently to avoid causing more stress than necessary.


Talking to them is kept to a minimum, and they are told, "This is night time."

It's important to get the message across to your baby.



Bath time is also an effective way to create a daily rhythm .

By bathing in the evening between 5pm and 7pm,


You can use natural changes in body temperature to induce sleepiness.


Also, care for them at the same time and in the same order every day.

It's also important to create a routine.


Babies find comfort in predictable patterns .



It is also essential to maintain a good sleeping environment.

Keep the room temperature at 20-23 degrees and humidity at 50-60%.

Ensure adequate ventilation.


Regarding sound, rather than complete silence,

A constant white noise that resembles the sounds of the womb is better.

Babies often sleep peacefully.



Understand that "day-night reversal is a temporary phenomenon that will definitely improve,"

By working on creating rhythm continuously without rushing,

This will help both the baby and the mother get a good night's sleep.

[Q&A Intermediate] Practical methods for establishing a daily routine for newborns

Create with light, sound and skin contact for babies

The ideal 24-hour cycle

Q: What is the ideal indoor environment for a newborn?


A: It is important to properly manage the four elements of temperature, humidity, light, and sound.


The room temperature is maintained at 20-23 degrees regardless of the season.

Keep humidity at 50-60% .

Especially in winter, the air tends to become dry due to heating.

We recommend using a humidifier.



Q: Can I play music to help me maintain a regular routine?


A: The right music is effective in creating a rhythm in your life.


During the day, bright and gentle classical music and children's songs are played.

Use quiet music or nature sounds at night.

However, the volume should be kept at about half the level that adults find comfortable.

Be careful not to strain your baby's hearing.



Q: Skinship helps create a rhythm in life

What are the effects?


A: Skin contact is good for a baby's emotional stability.

It plays an important role in shaping your daily rhythm .


During the day, actively hold your baby and give him gentle massages.

This helps to promote the perception that daytime is an active time.

Nighttime skin contact should be limited to what is necessary for breastfeeding and diaper changes.

Avoiding excessive stimulation will prevent sleep disturbance.




Q: Does going out affect your daily routine?



A: Going outside moderately is very effective in establishing a daily rhythm.


Once your puppy is over one month old, start with short morning walks.

Exposure to natural light regulates the body clock,

Feeling the outside sounds and wind also promotes sensory development.

However, please avoid crowded places and long periods of time out.

Start with short periods of 15-30 minutes and gradually get used to it.





Q: What should I do if my baby's feeding and sleeping schedules don't match?


A: During the newborn period, it is important to prioritize breastfeeding and gradually establish a regular rhythm.



First, stabilize the feeding intervals, then adjust the sleep rhythm.

Don't try to force yourself to extend your sleep time,

Respecting the baby's natural pace

Supporting them with environmental factors (light, sound, temperature) is effective.




Q: Is there a relationship between night crying and disrupted daily routines?


A: There is a close relationship.


Irregular life rhythms are often the cause of night crying,

On the other hand, a stable rhythm is effective in reducing night crying .

How you spend your evenings is especially important.

Taking advantage of the moderate fatigue and the change in body temperature caused by bathing,

It helps prevent night crying by inducing natural sleepiness.

Here is an example of a daily schedule for a newborn .


However, the important thing is not to "proceed according to a perfect schedule",

"Understanding your baby's rhythm and finding ways to make things easier for you as a mother."

At this stage, the intervals between feedings will increase slightly.

You will get more and more sleep.


Nighttime feedings reduced to about 4-5 times

The burden on mothers will also be gradually reduced.



We will explain in detail how to deal with individual differences.


If you say, "My child doesn't sleep for three hours,"

Review environmental factors.



The room temperature is too high or too low, the noise is bothersome,

This may be due to a lack of stomach satisfaction.


On the other hand, if you end up sleeping for 4-5 hours,

To prevent dehydration, wake your baby up to feed if it has been more than four hours.



Especially for babies who are not gaining enough weight.

Regular breastfeeding is important.



We will introduce time management techniques to reduce fatigue for mothers.


Make sure that the time your baby is sleeping is also your rest time .


Keep housework to a minimum and make it a habit to take naps with your baby.

It's important not to strive for perfection, but to reward yourself by saying, "You've done a great job today."


Advance preparation is effective in reducing the burden of nighttime breastfeeding.

Have everything you need for breastfeeding at your bedside.

Use minimal, indirect lighting.

For milk, it is convenient to prepare hot water in a thermos pot.



"Rather than a perfect schedule, we aim to create a daily life where parents and children can spend time together with smiles."

At your baby's pace,

Gradually find your ideal rhythm.

[Q&A Part 2] Newborn Care Problem Solving Comprehensive Guide

When your baby is not getting enough milk, crying at night, or not burping

Emergency Response

Q: What should I do if my baby doesn't burp after feeding?


A: If you can't burp, there's no need to force it.


If the baby does not come out after holding him upright for 10-15 minutes,

Turn it over on its side and see how it goes.

After that, if you hold your baby upright again, he or she may burp.

In breast milk, the amount of air swallowed is small,

It is normal to have difficulty burping.



Q: When do newborns start crying at night?


A: Strictly speaking, crying in newborn babies is not "night crying."


There are clear reasons why newborns cry at night, such as hunger or discomfort.

The so-called "night crying" begins around 3-4 months of age,

This refers to the phenomenon of crying at night for an unknown reason.

In the newborn period, this can usually be resolved by breastfeeding or changing diapers.



Q: I'm worried about whether I'm producing enough breast milk. How can I tell?


A: Please make a comprehensive judgment based on the following items.


The weight is steadily increasing (more than 150g per week).

Urinating more than six times a day.

The baby looks satisfied after breastfeeding.

The skin is firm and not limp.

If these conditions are met, your baby will have enough breast milk.



Q: My baby often vomits up. Is this okay?


A: Regurgitation in newborns is very common.


Because the muscles at the entrance to the stomach are underdeveloped,

A small amount of breast milk or formula may reflux.

Vomiting in large quantities like a fountain, accompanied by fever,

There is no need to worry if your baby does not show any symptoms such as lethargy.

This can be prevented by continuing to hold your baby upright for a while after breastfeeding.



Q: I'm worried about the color and frequency of my baby's stool. What is the normal range?


A: A newborn's poop changes from day to day.


For the first 2-3 days after birth, the baby will pass dark green meconium.

After that, if breastfed, yellow, loose stools 3-8 times a day,

For milk, the recommended dosage is yellow to brown, 1-3 times a day.

If you have persistent watery stools, blood in your stools, or white stools, you should see a doctor.



Q: What should I do if my newborn won't stop crying?


A: Please check and deal with the problem step by step.


First, check the basic needs: feeding, changing diapers, and adjusting the room temperature.

If the baby still doesn't stop crying, try holding him or massaging his back.

A "shhhh" sound similar to the sound of being inside the womb or gentle music can also be effective.

If your baby won't stop crying for more than 30 minutes no matter what you do, and his/her behavior is different from usual,

We recommend that you consult a medical institution.



Q: I feel like I'm nursing for too long. What's the appropriate length of time?


A: When breastfeeding, the recommended time is 10-15 minutes on each side, for a total of 20-30 minutes .


However, since the sucking power is weak in the newborn period,

It may take 30-40 minutes.

If your baby falls asleep or is clearly tired,

There's no need to force yourself to continue.

For efficient breastfeeding, make sure you follow the correct hold and latch techniques.

Newborn development and care changes guide by month

What changes from 1 month to 3 months after birth?

Measures for each stage of baby's development

Proactive parenting planning

"It's hard now, but when will it get easier?"

How does care change as your baby gets older?


Raising a newborn baby is harder than you might imagine.

Many mothers feel anxious about the uncertainty of what the future holds.


In fact, there is a clear pattern to a baby's development.

The way you care for your baby will change gradually as they get older.



[Major changes after one month]


Their weight increases by about 1.5 times since birth, and their height also increases by about 4-5 cm.

Feeding intervals will begin to stabilize a bit, often every 2.5-3 hours .

They will gradually spend more time awake and become more interested in their surroundings.

From this time onwards, it will be possible to go out for short periods of time,

Once your doctor gives you permission at your one-month checkup , you can start going out regularly.


As for changes in care, the baby can move from bathing to bathing with adults,

Feeding will also become a little more efficient, allowing your baby to drink larger amounts at each feeding .



[Dramatic changes at 2 months old]


This period is an important turning point known as the "two-month wall."

They will gradually begin to distinguish between day and night and will sleep longer at night.

This is often the first time we see a smile , marking the beginning of socialization.

This will be a very emotional moment for the mother.


On the other hand, some babies start crying at night in earnest around this time.

Also, as your baby grows, their feeding amount and sleep patterns will change.

Your daily routine may be temporarily disrupted.



[Stabilization at 3 months of age]


This is the time when many mothers feel that parenting has become a little easier .

The intervals between feedings will increase to 3-4 hours, and babies will tend to sleep for 5-6 hours at a time at night.

As your baby's neck becomes stronger, it becomes easier to breastfeed and soothe him or her while holding him or her upright .


Their facial expressions also become more expressive, and they laugh out loud,

They will begin to babble sounds such as "ah" and "ooh."

This makes communication with your baby more enjoyable.



We will give you tips on how to effectively care for your baby based on their age.


At one month old, we still think of the baby as an extension of the newborn period.

Safety and cleanliness are our top priorities, and we enjoy going out within our limits.

At two months of age, babies begin to develop rhythms that are conscious of the difference between day and night .

If your baby starts crying at night, accept it as a temporary phenomenon.


At 3 months old, your baby's personality becomes more distinct.

We will develop a style of care that suits each child.

Also, from this time onwards, in preparation for weaning food ,

It's important for moms to start paying attention to their own diet as well.



It is also important to pay attention to the points at each stage.


It is important to respond calmly and without panicking to the sudden changes that occur during the first month of life.

At two months of age, babies may experience temporary confusion due to night crying and growth spurts .

It is important to understand this as a normal developmental process.

At 3 months old, even if things have gotten easier, don't let your guard down.

Safety measures need to be further strengthened.



Understand that "baby development is both predictable and unique"

While knowing the basic developmental patterns ,

The most important thing is to warmly watch over each child as they grow in their own unique way.

Newborn childcare system involving fathers and families

Nighttime breastfeeding sharing technique

How to master baby bathing even a new dad can do

Tips for family collaboration

"I want dads to be involved in child rearing, but where do I start?"

"How can I support moms who are exhausted from nighttime breastfeeding?"


Since newborn care is a 24-hour system ,

There are limits to what a single mom can do.

With the cooperation of fathers and other family members, the burden of childcare can be shared.

It is important to create a system in which the whole family can welcome the baby .



Let's start with bathing , which is the easiest thing for dad to do.


Bathing is one of the most technical aspects of childcare,

Once mastered, it will play an important role every day.

It is also a valuable time for skin-to-skin contact with your baby.

It's an effective opportunity for father-son bonding.


We will explain in detail the steps for mastering bathing for dads .

In advance preparation, set the room temperature to 25-26 degrees ,

Place all necessary items within reach.

The water temperature should be 38-40 degrees , and you should check it with your dad's wrist.



The most important thing is how you support your baby.

Support your baby's head and neck with your non-dominant hand,

Gently press your thumb and middle finger over both ears to prevent water from getting in.

Use your dominant hand to wash and slowly place your feet first into the water.


When washing, start with your face, then your head and then your body.

Lather the soap well and massage gently into your skin.

Rinse thoroughly to remove all soapy ingredients .



We will propose an effective system for sharing nighttime breastfeeding duties .


Even if your baby is exclusively breastfeeding, there are many things dads can do.

Changing diapers before feeding, burping after feeding,

By having dad take charge of putting the child to bed ,

This can greatly reduce the burden on mothers.


If you are mixed feeding or exclusively breastfeeding,

It is also possible to completely rotate night feedings.

For example, if you breastfeed at 9pm, midnight, 3am, or 6am,

It is effective for dad to take charge of the midnight and 6 o'clock times .



It is also important to build a collaborative system with the whole family .


For grandparents,

Ask for indirect support such as cleaning and meal preparation .

We create an environment where moms and dads can concentrate on caring for their babies.


If you have siblings, divide the roles according to their ages.

We share the awareness that "the whole family will welcome the baby together."

Have the older child take off the diaper .

It can be effective to give them a simple but important role, such as singing a song .



It's also important to know how to communicate effectively .


Discuss childcare policies in advance

Share the basic direction with your family.

Daily status reports are brief,

By actively expressing gratitude ,

Maintain a collaborative atmosphere.


In addition, we strive to divide roles that make the most of each person's area of expertise ,

It is important to build a system that is sustainable within reasonable limits.

If dad is tired from work, he can participate mainly on weekends .

Grandparents can help out at times that suit their physical strength.

Please try to be flexible in your response .



"Having the whole family support the baby is good for both the baby and the family.

You will be able to feel that this creates a richer and more stable child-rearing environment .
