When parents come for their one month visit they're most interested in feeding issues. Feeding issues, peeing issues, and pooping issues are all the popular one month visit issues. So, a one month should be feeding every three to four hours during the day. In the evening a one month old might feed every three hours, but they might sleep three to five hours. If they do then you're really lucky. You don't have to wake a one month old baby up every three hours to feed any more unless your doctor tells you that your baby is not gaining enough weight and needs to be woken up every two to three hours let's say.
Breast-fed babies wake more often, because they just don't get as much volume when they breast feed. Often, a baby's put on the breast, and when they hear the mom's heartbeat and they feel the mom's warmth they just fall right back to sleep. They don't finish that full feed like a bottle-fed baby might get three or four ounces before bed.
Babies often cluster feed, and that's normal. So, a baby might feed every hour during the day, especially a breast-fed baby, and in the evening that baby might sleep longer. That's fine.
Babies should have anywhere between three to five wet diapers a day, and poop can range. Some breast-fed babies poop with every feed, whereas some babies don't poop for five days. That's totally normal. I would say that the majority of the phone calls I get are parents worrying about a baby being constipated. There's a wide range of normal, and that's OK.
At one month the baby should be regarding your face, looking at you while they're feeding. What the baby is seeing is the contrast of you against the wall behind. So, sometimes parents feel that the baby is looking past them because their vision is about 20/400. It's very out of focus. What they're looking at is a contrast of you against the wall behind them, and that's OK.
Between one month and three months the baby is going to start to recognize you, regard your face, know your voice. A baby should be responding to sound of course. They still have the startle reflex, so if a loud car drives by or somebody honks a horn they'll startle. That's the Moro reflex. That's normal.
Babies should be sleeping on their back. I recommend that parents rotate the baby's head from side to side. I almost make the analogy of a rotisserie chicken. You want it cooked all the way around. So with the baby's head, because we are preventing SIDS by having a baby lie on their back, we are creating a flat back of their head. That's called postural plagiocephaly. To prevent postural plagiocephaly I recommend that the parents rotate the baby's head from side to side when they put them to sleep.
Then during the day time when the baby's awake you can give the baby tummy time. Parents ask how much tummy time does a baby need. There's no set menu for tummy time. Five minutes for a baby is eternity. You often put your baby on their tummy and they're supposed to lift their head up but they smush their head back down. That's fine, but you want to keep on practicing with the baby because they're sleeping on their back for so long some of their milestones are delayed, and we want them to learn to push up when they're awake. So, whenever the baby's awake you can put the baby on a firm surface like the mattress in a crib or a play mat on the floor and let the baby learn to push up and hold their head up.
Babies don't need water at this age. Water starts at four months. On warm days you just have to keep your baby cool and well hydrated with formula or with breast milk.
As far as smiling, smiling develops between six weeks to two and a half months. A baby will start smiling when they're happy or when they're soothed. A baby should also, between one and three months, be calmed by your voice when you come in the room and be consoled. If a baby has excessive crying where they cannot be consoled whatsoever then you should contact your physician.

Straight to the point, helpful information, breathe of fresh air compared to many other videos these days!
I read a lot of the comments here and I am a bit upset. As a mom of 3 sons (11, 8, 5) I can say, the very best you can do as a mother is just to be always calm and put confidence in your child. Your children have good abilities to became good people. Every child is different. Try not to match your child with anothers. This only makes you insecure and helps nobody. Rear children is not a competition. There is no winner and no loser, just Difference. Sorry for my english.
Anja undsoweiter what advice! I can’t agree more. Thank u :)
Anja undsoweiter e
Anja undsoweiter perfect English and I agree all
Hey what are you doing bro
I completely agree
Those are wind smiles. The proper smile is after a month usually and its a biggg difference. The real smile is when your baby looking at you wide awake and smiling :) ..best feeling ever! -new mum with 2months old baby
Wind. Jesus.
The word is fart. Say fart. Fart is no a bad thing.
G Scarlatti gahahhaha
@nibblez_the_clown wowww i forgot about this comment hahaha 4 yrs later and now mother of 3 girls aged 4,3 and 6months ❤️
@nibblez_the_clown they didn’t say it was a reflex they said it was probably a smile due to passing gas like pushing it out
My newborn wants to eat like every hour lol and only sleeps an hour or two at night if I'm lucky
totally normal if breastfeeding!! ❤️
Same here i feel u
@@ellahodnett846 yup story of my life rn
Sam ehere
same
Thank you for this video, most "informative" videos on here are just new moms focused more on video lighting than giving usable knowledge.
My baby boy is freakishly strong. First thing he did after beeing placed on mommy after birth was to raise his head and look around. Doctors and nurses have commented on his strength several Times.
Daddy proud :D
Same with my girl 😂
Armsport Gamer same !!
My baby did a pushup....
Nurses and doctor were like "WTF"
I know we’ll see a couple of pro athletes in 18 years! Lol
Armsport Gamer lol same! My baby did that too I’m literally 5 feet and my baby came out a whole 8 pounds and 6 ounces and 21 inches long , he is turning one month this November 30 and he is really strong 😆💙💙
My son will be 3 months old on the 25th already and it feels like I just had him yesterday. He is so talkative, smiles all of the time, is starting to giggle and roll over. I want him to stay a baby forever 😩
How adorable 🥰 May God bless him and may he give you this love back when he's all grown up!
@@BasantAbdulmageed May he hail thyself.
My baby's so young. I just now put together what the drs meant by skin to skin contact. Awww the sound of my heartbeats always been soothing to her the whole time... right :/?! I just thought idk. I guess I kind of thought about it... Maybe the whole me constantly being nude, to a bit nude in the hospital threw me off. She's just a clueless cutie mainly only focusing following the sound of my voice. Which is still cute. Her bright dark grayish blueish eyes looking at everything too. Kind of think, at least hoping, the father will end up being better than his miserable pos dad..
Also about the part where they say that a baby should be calmer around your voice. This is a learned trait for the baby. Lots of parents don't realize they should talk to their baby even while it's screaming. If you do this (even in the middle of a loud crying spell) the baby will learn to calm down when you talk. If you don't do this, the baby won't learn to calm down when you talk. It takes a few weeks (and even months) for this connection to happen, so it's important to start doing it more often at around 2 months old. Then by the time they are 3 months they should be more calm when you speak :) (my own experience and my friends) :)
Faith, Hope and Love done
Faith, Hope and Love thank u bc she doesn't calm down when I speak to her n I wasn't happy with tht information bc it worried me. I do how speak to her when she crys. not much has changed. BTW she is 24 days old.
I wish I saw your comment earlier. My baby doesn't calm down when I talk, unless i carry her.
I'm due in 3 more days and this is actually very helpful, thank you.
Faith, Hope and Love preach
Love this one, no BS just straight facts! 😍😘
My daughter smiled on day 2 and has been smiling every day since. She laughed last week. Every moment is so exciting to see 😍 She just made 2 months today. 5/6/21
@Helena Shavuka aww congrats mama!
My little brother is a few days old and the only time he smiles is when he pees
when my little girl pee, her face is like she is doing something which is very thoughtful.
Ishrat Jahan just relief!

My daughter rotates her head herself. She hates laying with her head in one spot for too long
this really helps me a lot i was so worried because its my first time to be mother. thank you so much 😊
Very informative. I've had the worst time getting my baby to sleep through the night. Womb sounds have been helpful for me. Some music box lullabies work too. Not sure why it works but it does. My favorites to use are from Best Baby Sleep right here on UA-cam. I had bought a cd but much easier to get it from here. Just a tip. Hope it helps others here.
She answered every question I thought I mayve had! Straightforward
Very informative. I’m sure new moms will be happy to watch this.
This is very detailed and important. I’m the mother of a 2 month old. Everything you’ve said is accurate. I thought my baby was constipated but he began having more dirty diapers after week 6. My major issues involve getting him to sleep around 3am and sleeping on his back. He does not like sleeping on his back and will immediately awaken. His eyes are also out of focus but I’m going to get them checked
Why does this woman sound like shes recollecting something traumatic, like she's going to burst in to tears.
Man I was thinking the same thing...why she sound like she about to cry
Raising children is not easy.
shes probably taking care of newborns...makes people crazy
🤣🤣🤣😂😂
Because talking in front of a video is stressful/nervewrecking when you are presenting to unknown people on the other side of the camera. Try it! People have different ways of dealing with this stress. Their voice often reflects how they are feeling. They often feel rushed due to time constraints they have been given.
Very helpful. Thanks for sharing.
Wow well done cant wait to meet my baby
As far as "smiling", one of my cousin's started smiling about 10-20 minutes after birth. I was like "how does he know how to smile, what the heck is he thinking about, because he was just born?" Amazing.
It’s reflexes rather than social that early on unfortunately
that's that I'm going to poop soon smile or i have gas smile
A newborn smile is just the baby moving it's facial muscles. Later they learn to smile.
Thats smiling reflex i guess. My baby was smiling in my womb when we were doing 3d scan
I had to look it up myself. But the idea is cute. And the reaction is funny. My baby will scream in the middle of the night to get her diaper changed. And it's 1 sec from acting like a drama queen to "smiling" in her sleep. Oh well, it's still cute. I haven't told anyone the facts yet... although. I swear, I think she laughs in her dreams too... 🤔🤷🏻♀️
I personally wouldn’t worry about the head shape...it works itself out in my experience, by the time they’re toddlers the head looks pretty normal!
You guys... I freaking love babies 😭
This was short and very informative. Thanks a lot. I can relate much from what you said
Life saving vedio. Wondering for my questions answer just got it now. Thank you ever so much I have been struggling a lot with these issues. Now I know by your vedio the reasons.
Love it thanks. My 1 month old is on track.
Good overview of the basics
Seeing my little boy smile is the best thing ever. He’s 1 month old and he’s getting chunky lol
My little man just turned two months old. G d Bless and good luck.
Thank you for this. Now I get my baby's feeding habits
Im a new mom and i found these video very helpful👍
And she also smiled as soon as she was born when her dad was talking to her as they were cleaning her up and already is started holding her head up and pushing with her arms and legs to try to climb up my chest lol
Your charm is irresistible!! You look energetic. You have a great smile. I love you!
Wow!!! She is telling all the things my baby doing now.... Now he is 120 days old...
Thank you so much you
helped me a lot
Thank you for good advice!
Great information, she is so straight to the point. Mine is feeding every 2 hours and sleep 2 hours and longer. Trick for Mamas finding it hard at night times, give your babies warm oil massage before bed and watch them sleep longer.
New Mommys here who are suffering from postpartum depression your not alone and I really wanted to let you all know that you are all doing a really fantastic job and that you are all beautiful and strong! 💕
My son already started to smile he one month today.. best feeling in world

Thanks for sharing! Very helpful tips for new moms.
Yes, but doesnt cover colicky babies much. For that I recommend the book, The Happiest Baby on the Block by Harvey Karp. Here's a short yet detailed animated summary of it: m.ua-cam.com/video/crdQy8zliZw/v-deo.html

Thank you for this video. My breakdown was almost in 3..2…1 Lbs ♥️
lol my 11 day old son feeds every darn hour. 😂😂 and pees alot..
Well, every baby is different. With good appetite you should have a strong n healthy baby
Tucker,Fearn and Bentley’s Angel Forever don’t be silly. Every baby is different. Mine feeds every 2-3 hrs.
Rachel is My Angel no do your research before trying to put someone down it is totally normal for newborns to eat every hour to 2-3 hours , 4 hours just means you got a good sleeper
Rachel is My Angel please do some research that is all I will say! Lol your talking about a month old and up baby feeding schedule, like I said google is great stop being ignorant hun 😘
N H amen exactly lol!
I came acorss this video that made me very happy and answered all my questions
Thank you so much for the helpful quick video ❤
You're unbelievably lucky if I was any sort of typical baby should your child sleep three to five hours during the evening! My mom told me that the longest nap I ever took as a baby was about one hour; and that was way too short- I insisted on being up at all hours, literally!
actually, breastmilk is digested more quickly than cows milk formula which is why breastfed babies feed more frequently. There is a huge variation in the volume of each breastfeed as well.
Word, my son frequently feeds every hour. Tough on my wife.
Something I realized you are *both* probably right.
My baby feeds every hr i dont get to sleep..
babies are cool creatures, so anything done for the good of the baby, thanks for information
Aw, this was a really nice post. In concept I want to put in writing like this moreover - taking time and precise effort to make an excellent video but what can I say I procrastinate alot and on no account seem to get one thing done.
I was freaking out this was helpful thank you so much
I give this video 5 stars!
So true!!!
i cant wait to give birth to my baby
Me neither, but I am scared 😫
7 bil parasites and you still producing?
How old your baby now? 😁
Really good video, thank you!
Very helpful, thank you.
Thank you...very helpful!!..😀
The let the baby sleep on back came back tragically when my frnd was advised to keep her new born on his back, the baby kind of burbs and aspirated with the milk.. And died.. So if you want to let the baby sleep on the back make sure it is 30 degrees or slightly tuck something so they'll be slightly on their side.. I never keep a baby sleep on his back though...only in his car seat or when I'm with him.
my baby boy is 1 month and couple days old. he started to smile before he was 1 month old
Thanks for the information...😊
this is literally the best video ever.

My 2 week old does cluster feedings. The worst! Ur waking up all night but Im so excited shea here
this video was helpful thank you
My baby smiles and she's only a few days old 😊
My daughter too, I think they mean they will smile on purpose later. My baby smiles sometimes, but without a reason. I think she is exercising her face muscles or something.
My baby smilies she is few days old
Thank you so much for this information
Thank-you 🤗
Ive seen my son smile several times already since days ago. Mostly during sleep. He's 9 days old today.
Day dreaming
Very helpful! Thank you
Mama loves her big boy. 😘 He's sweeter than my favorite dessert. 😍😍
my sister started smiling with about +2weeks hahaha
Very informative. Thank you for posting
Sleep 3-5 hours???! I wish, our baby has a 1-2 hour alarm clock. Longest she'll sleep is 2 and a half hours if were lucky! Cheers to whoever has a baby that sleeps 3-5 hours
Cheers to me, my baby is a month and sleeps from 12 midnight to 5 in the morning, 5 to 6 hours, bt will feed 3 to 4 hours before sleeping, used to worry a lot and test her glucose levels which were always above 4,2 when I try waking her up she doesn't or feeds for 5 min then back to sleep, normal weight n no complications at all
@@kgaogelonchabeleng5993 same here.. sleeps maybe 6-8 hours through the night🙏

That's not true about breastfed babies my son is a month old & still breastfeed while sleeping. Not all babies do that.
Always smile when he finish eating 😍
My moms was worried about me as a newborn because from the first night she brought me home I slept completely through the night. Because I was healthy and gaining weight the doctor told her not to wake me up.
