Wet Diapers: We track a baby's intake, and their hydration status, by following how many wet diapers they are creating. Infants under a month of age should make at least 4 a day. Sick children with stomach flu should have 3 a day, with at least one being heavy. If your are seeing less than this, contact your healthcare provider.
