How do we know that the baby getting enough milk?

When we attend Childbirth Preparation Class,they give us many information about breastfeeding.

Things that we need to monitor, to indicate that the baby is getting enough milk: 
  1. Baby nursing setidaknya 8-12 kali dalam 24 jam (jadi +/- tiap 2jam sekali)
  2. Baby keliatan mengantuk dan kenyang setelah nursing
  3. After the feeding,breast feel less full and fell softer
  4. At least 6 diaper a day and during the 1st month, baby should have at least 3 bowel movements a day. stool should be soft and yellow
  5. Baby is gaining weight.
Jika baby tidak memenuhi checklist diatas ada baiknya langsung konsultasikan ke dokter.
