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
Love this one, no BS just straight facts! 😍😘
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 CZcams. I had bought a cd but much easier to get it from here. Just a tip. Hope it helps others here.
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
Very informative. I’m sure new moms will be happy to watch this.
this really helps me a lot i was so worried because its my first time to be mother. thank you so much 😊
Very helpful. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this video, most "informative" videos on here are just new moms focused more on video lighting than giving usable knowledge.
She answered every question I thought I mayve had! Straightforward
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
Wow well done cant wait to meet my baby
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
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..
This is sooooooooooo helpful. Thank you so much. From Kenya
Im a new mom and i found these video very helpful👍
Thank you so much for the helpful quick video ❤
Thank you...very helpful!!..😀
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.
Very helpful, thank you.
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!
Wow!!! She is telling all the things my baby doing now.... Now he is 120 days old...
Really good video, thank you!
Some of these I didn't know. Thanks
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.czcams.com/video/crdQy8zliZw/video.html

My daughter rotates her head herself. She hates laying with her head in one spot for too long
Thanks for sharing this video ;)
So true!!!
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.
My 2 week old does cluster feedings. The worst! Ur waking up all night but Im so excited shea here
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
My son already started to smile he one month today.. best feeling in world
Carla Breedon impart vido
Thanks this was helpful
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!
Thank You 🙏🏽
Thnk u so much for the information
I was freaking out this was helpful thank you so much

My little brother is a few days old and the only time he smiles is when he pees

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.
thanks so much ❤❤❤
this is literally the best video ever.
I love babies :-)
Good to know!
I love this video
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... 🤔🤷🏻♀️
So informative 👌
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!
i loved this video! first good one i found without excess blah blah ing
