How much water the baby drinks a day depends on the child's age and weight. If the baby is fed pure milk powder within 6 months, the daily liquid intake should be calculated according to the weight. For example, a 4kg child should consume 120- 150ml/kg of liquid per day, which is about 600ml. If the milk is 400ml per day, the remaining 200ml needs to be supplemented by drinking water. If the daily intake of milk powder is 500ml, 600ml minus 500ml, that is, 100ml of water needs to be added every day. Of course, it cannot be strictly calculated every day, mainly according to the child's urine situation. If the child's urine is relatively clear, there are about 6-8 times a day, which is relatively a normal amount, indicating that the liquid supplement is basically appropriate. If the child's urine volume is yellow or less, it indicates that the amount of fluid supplement is not enough, so the child's water volume should be calculated according to the total intake and intake, that is, the output to assess the intake.
