Most newborns need about 8–12 diaper changes in 24 hours, driven by at least 6 wet diapers and roughly 3–4 stools in the early weeks.

Newborns usually go through 8–12 diapers per day in the first weeks, with breastfed babies often on the higher end due to more frequent stools.

Most term newborns need about 100–120 kcal per kg each day; a 3 kg baby needs roughly 300–360 kcal (about 15–18 fl oz of 20 kcal/oz milk).

Most newborns need about 8–12 diaper changes a day in the first weeks, so plan 60–90 diapers per week and roughly 250–300 for the first month.

Most newborns need 8–12 diaper changes daily, with at least 6 wet diapers and several stools once feeding is established.

Delay the first newborn bath for at least 24 hours, and wait until the umbilical stump falls off—often 7–14 days—before a full tub bath.

Plan on 300–360 newborn diapers in month one and about 2,800–3,200 in the first year, depending on daily changes.

Most formula-fed newborns have about one dirty diaper daily; expect at least one stool each day once meconium has passed.

By day 5–7: expect 3–4 yellow stools daily; after 6 weeks, daily or every few days is normal if soft and baby feeds well.

After 3–6 weeks, some breastfed newborns can go 5–7 days; in the first month, daily stools are expected and formula-fed babies usually go once a day.
