Baby cries... people ask, 'Is he hungry?' You say 'No, I just fed him half an hour ago.' Baby continues to cry and people say ' I think he is hungry. Look at his stomach, it is flat. There is nothing in it. He is a baby, if he pees twice he will be hungry again.'
Why do people always assume that the baby is crying because he/she is hungry? Babies cry. It could be because they are hungry, thirsty, sleepy or they are feeling hot, cold, uncomfortable or are just simply cranky. Try feeding your baby out of turn and see how he/she is totally disinterested after a few sips. Bottle feed goes by the clock. Babies never feel hungry out of turn. Remember the time you fed your baby and you will always know when your baby is really hungry... Milk is not a magic portion and it is definitely not the answer to everything.
