My 4 week old seems to have developed wind/ colic over the past few days. Crying starts early evening and can go on until 2am. During this time she screams, cluster feeds, we wind her and then repeat! Eventually she falls asleep while feeding and that lasts approx 4 hours and she wakes for a feed. Last night this all started around 4pm and she fell asleep at 11pm, exhausted I forgot to set an alarm to b'feed her and she didn't wake. I woke at 5:30am and gut her up for a feed. I'm really worried this is a long time for a bag to go without eating? She's fed well this morning and had a wet nappy on waking and another midway through her feed. Should I be concerned or grateful? She lost weight after birth and is gradually regaining it. She breastfeeds around 7-9 times a day and is topped up with 30ml formula every second feed as per Midwife's instructions. Any advice any one? Thanks
