In the first week, newborns take about 5–60 mL per feed, rising to ~60–90 mL by week 2–3, with 8–12 feeds across 24 hours.

Newborn breastfeeding: don’t chase minutes—aim for 8–12 feeds each day and steady swallowing; many sessions last 20–45 minutes in the first weeks.

Newborn nursing time: Aim for 10–15 minutes of active swallowing per breast, but feed on demand and let baby finish the first side before switching.

Most newborn feeds last around 20–30 minutes in total (about 10–15 minutes per side), with 8–12 feeds each day—prioritize cues over the clock.

Newborns usually feed for 10–40 minutes per session and nurse 8–12 times in 24 hours; active swallowing, not the clock, sets the length.

Breastfeeding a newborn usually takes about 5–40 minutes of active nursing per feed, across 8–12 feeds a day; watch cues, not the clock.

A newborn usually takes 30–60 mL per feed in week one and about 150–200 mL per kilogram across 24 hours, with an upper daily cap near 960 mL.

In the first 24–48 hours, most newborns pass one to two meconium poops; by day three, stools start to shift as feeds increase.

For newborn winter dressing, use one more layer than you wear; build base + mid + outer, then tweak for room temp, wind, and safe sleep.
