In the first week of life, we need enough milk to keep baby active,
hydrated, and having the appropriate number of diapers. (1 wet/ get out
the meconium on day 1; 2 wet/several transitional stools on day 2; 3
wet, starting to get yellower stools on day 3-4; full feeding by day
5). If breastfeeding is a little behind, but the baby is still in good
shape in the first few days, a lot of breastfeeding and some
milk/colostrum expression to feed baby with in a spoon or cup or
whatever is helpful. I don't pull out the artificial stuff unless baby
is in bad shape and we are getting nothing out of mom.
