I appreciate all who posted their "schedules" for infant stool/urine output - even before the early discharge craze, this type of schedule seems very helpful to new parents - I would have loved it. I sat home very anxious about whether my little one was adequately hydrated, and I sure wish I'd used cloth diapers that week, since the disposables were so absorbant I was never sure if they were wet! however, I do hope no one is really recommending supplementing with formula. Now that we know that exposure to cow's milk protein can increase risk for later atopy, wheezing, and diabetes, we should no longer prescribe cow's milk to any infant unless absolutely necessary. The recommendation if output is below that presented as normal should be to contact a health care provider for evaluation that day. Julie Graves Moy, M.D., M.P.H. [log in to unmask] P.O.
