Thirsty newborn in summer
Hi doctor,
I'm a lactating mother of two months. As the summer has started, I feel like my baby is thirsty frequently. He keeps demanding for the feed in between his regular schedules. And those feeds last for just 5-10 min
Is there any easy way to tackle this? Especially in summer?

Greetings
I would suggest you to properly feed your baby for minimum 15-20 mins at a time
As the starting 5-10 mins of milk will not suffice with baby’s thirst
