Need advice! First time mum and DS was one month yesterday.
We've had feeding issues from the start. He wouldn't latch so I was pumping and bottle feeding. We found out at three weeks that he had a thick posterior tongue tie and we're able to have it corrected right away.
A week later he took to the breast with nipple shields and just Friday he started latching without.
He generally eats every 2hr and has been putting on weight very steadily from the start. No issues with wet/dirty nappies.
He's now been sleeping since 1am, and hasn't fed since 11-11:30. I've tried a bit of everything, including changing his nappy, but he's still just sleeping and refusing to feed.
Do I let him continue to sleep through?? Or do I force the issue with a bottle feed?
Thank you in advance, I'm unsure and tempted to just let him sleep and trust that he'll let me know when he's hungry.
