A week old baby may drink between 70 ml and 85 ml, and a slightly older baby may drink up to 100 ml. As long as the baby does not show indigestion and mental state after eating, the appropriate amount can be increased. After increasing the baby's milk powder and feeding, it is necessary to pay close attention to the baby's stool. If defecation is accompanied by milk petals, and the child will show frequent crying phenomenon, it is likely caused by indigestion. After the child has finished eating milk, try to massage the child's abdomen clockwise.
