It is okay for your baby to have more wet diapers or stools than the number listed above,
but if the baby has less than this call your baby’s pediatrician or breastfeeding counselor.
Must feed at least 8 times in 24 hours but can feed more than 12 times in 24 hours.
Always follow the advice of your baby’s pediatrician.
