Little'un was born at 11:24pm on Thursday. She latches well during the day and feeds anything between 5 and 20mins each side but we're a bit concerned whether she's getting enough milk. Particularly as she hasn't had a poo-filled nappy in 2 days.
Last night particularly she seemed more restless and seems frustrated trying to latch and comes off very quickly - she fed on and off the entire night but didn't settle until after 4am.
We don't want to panic and start using formula if we can avoid it but I am in pain and can't take another night of constant feeding.
MW is coming tomorrow and we have already contacted the bf counselor but are awaiting a response.
Can anyone offer any advice?
