My DD1 is only five days old, so I do feel a bit silly posting so early in the piece really, but her eating habits are so far from what my sons were I am wondering if they are ok and likely to change!
She eats greedily and enthusiastically, BUT only for about five to ten minutes - after this she falls asleep or gets upset if I try and encourage her to have more - and every hour, on the hour. It is ok so far but a few weeks down the track I think six feeds a night might be doing my head in! Is there any way of trying to encourage her to have a bit more at each feed without upsetting her, or is she likely to do this herself do you think?
Also, I have a LOT of milk, so I am starting expressing soon too - I feel like I have far too much for her little snacks!
Any advice would be gratefully welcomed - my son was a straightforward feeder and moved to formula with ease after a few months, so not sure how to deal with anything out of the ordinary!
