I learned many years ago the 6-8 wet diapers but these were cloth and 5-6 
disposables were acceptable.  Mainly because they are so absorbant, mom 
doesn't notice as soon and they obviously hold more.  2-5 healthy sized 
BM's are also acceptable, with 4 being an average to look for by day 4-5.

My sources have always been LLL and "BF and HL", Ruth Lawrence, etc.  Are 
the higher counts some have mentioned just from hospital policies or other 
resources?

Thanks,

Cheryl
