Hi
My daughter is 8 days old and for about 2 days she has been feeding every hour. I'm breastfeeding and I know this can be the case but during the night I gave her 2 bottles as I needed to have a rest. She had nearly 2 ounces at 1am, then had another 3 ounces at 3am and woke up at 5.30am and I have fed her again.
Is this normal? I'm really worried that if I'm giving her the bottles I will end up over feeding her plus the fact she was only little when born (5in 9). I'm a first time mum and feel drained as when I eventually fall to sleep she wakes up for another feed!
