I haven't seen this one written anywhere yet (haven't got that far in my
course material, TBH!) but what our local LC says, is 1 wet dipe per day
of baby's age until the milk comes in. Which means, if the milk comes
in on day 5, baby should have 1 wet dipe on day one, 2 on day 2, 3 on
day 3...and 5 on day 5. After milk comes in, should be...8-10 cotton
dipes or 6-8 disposables.
I don't know if this is reliable, but that is what I was told.
(if it's not right, please correct me! :-))
