My baby is 18 days old today, He usually feeds every 3ish hours (I feed on demand) and does about 8 dirty nappies.
However the last 2 days he has fed every 2 hours and only had 4 dirty nappies. Is he not getting enough (my gut says he is, he is puking after nearly every feed from stuffing himself) or is this a growth spurt?
I really enjoy breastfeeding, but I hate how it makes me worry. It seems like you don't know things have gone wrong, till they've gone wrong; so I'm always on the look out for "it's going wrong" signals!
Sorry for yet another post, I'm finding the whole thing rather tricky with not much local support so this board has been a life saver!
