Isn't super hungry though. Just a sleepy little fella. @Andrea: yep! I think insurance covered it too. Only paid a 40 dollar copay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborn-have-a-lot-of-wet-diapers-during-hisher-first-day-of-life#post-457382 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:56:07 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 457382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I remember the pee looking funny - it had bright orange things in it that looked like blood at first glance. One wet diaper in 24 hours sounds about right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborn-have-a-lot-of-wet-diapers-during-hisher-first-day-of-life#post-457374 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:54:16 +0000 polkadots 457374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>our LO waited until the 25th hour to pee. She had dilated kidneys before she was born so they were watching extra close, and did an ultrasound. She had jaundice and we treated at home for about 5 days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborn-have-a-lot-of-wet-diapers-during-hisher-first-day-of-life#post-457372 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:54:10 +0000 plantains 457372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>she didn't pee much at first. She was jaundiced but it went away within the 5 days that we were in hospital post c-section. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborn-have-a-lot-of-wet-diapers-during-hisher-first-day-of-life#post-457368 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:53:42 +0000 mrs. wagon 457368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LMW was so hungry from the minute she was born... the only thing that kept her quiet was an ounce or two of formula and then she'd fall asleep... so we had plenty of wet diapers I think. We'd start with nursing then when she became frantic, we'd switch boobs, then frantic, then ounce of formula. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborn-have-a-lot-of-wet-diapers-during-hisher-first-day-of-life#post-457365 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:52:09 +0000 Andrea 457365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: oh wow, never knew you could do it at home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborn-have-a-lot-of-wet-diapers-during-hisher-first-day-of-life#post-457364 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:52:00 +0000 mrbee 457364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You guys gonna do any supplementing early on? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborn-have-a-lot-of-wet-diapers-during-hisher-first-day-of-life#post-457344 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:49:39 +0000 chopsuey 457344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: yeah she got the lights! We rented a machine and got to treat her at home though.<br /> Just talked to the nurse and she said they like to see 1 wet diaper the first 24 hrs and a poop within 48 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-newborn-have-a-lot-of-wet-diapers-during-hisher-first-day-of-life#post-457308 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:45:50 +0000 Andrea 457308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: was she? Did she need the lights?</p> <p>I don't remember anymore about the diapers.
