Please add solid food 4 times a day and plenty of boiled and cooled water,in addition to breast feeding .In case baby is on formula feeds recheck if the correct dilution is made and decrease the number of milk feedings to a maximum of 3 times daily. This problem is because of inadequate supplementary feeding and too much milk intake.
