Quick Q re BF 3 week old

[FredKiller]

DD is EBF, had a TT which we got snipped early on and has been feeding well since.

At night, she tends to cluster feed til midnight/1ish, although she also seems a bit windy/colicky then too. She then conks out for a good 5-6 hour stretch. Is this too long for such a small baby to go without milk? I'm used to my DS who woke every 1.5hr until he was 18mo so this seems most strange.

Lots of wet and dirty nappies and she has been gaining weight (although haven't had her weighed this week as I'm trying not to get obsessed with weekly weight gain like I did with DS).

She feeds regularly all day, but will go for 3 hour stretches sometimes, when asleep. When she wakes she has a good long 40 minute feed usually.

The cluster feeding is setting her up for the long sleep, so if she is gaining weight fine and doing plenty of dirty nappies I'd enjoy the rest! If it was longer than six hours I'd sneak a feed in.

Thanks. I weighed her on the kitchen scales for reassurance and she seems to have put on at least half a pound (although fully aware this is unlikely to be accurate!)

I'll keep an eye on it though.
