In December, John Wines bought a scratch-off lottery ticket at a gas station in Roswell, New Mexico. As he started scratching, he came across multiple winning numbers totaling over $500,000. However, the maximum prize for the ticket is $250,000. âThereâs one right here for $250,000.
At birth your babyâs stomach is size of the cherry, and it can only hold 0.1 to 0.2 ounces (5-7 ml) of milk. This is the reason you must constantly feed your newborn. The stomach grows very quickly each day, and by day 3 the stomach is a size of of a walnut and can hold 0.8 to 1 ounces (22-27 ml) of milk. By day 7 your babyâs stomach is a size of an apricot and can hold 1.5 to 2 ounces (45-60 ml) of milk. By one month old your babyâs stomach is a size of large egg and can hold 2.5 to 5 ounces (80-150 ml) of milk.
As a newborn, babies get all the fluid they need from your breast milk or formula milk. But as you introduce solid food, their appetite for milk starts to reduce. At this point you may want to consider extra forms of hydration, especially as their activity levels increase. Until they are 6 months old though, there is no need for your baby to drink anything but breast milk or formula. Once they are 6 months old and you are introducing foods to them, you may like to offer them a small amount of water at mealtimes (tap or filtered is fine).
