Newborn not eating

Just looking for some reassurance (hopefully)!

Came across something about low blood sugar in infants and suddenly remembered when DD was born she didn't feed through the night. She woke up but each time I picked her up fell back to sleep so never fed. She was hours old.

I'm now worrying about low blood sugar. I had gestational diabetes so she was at risk of it but no one checked her blood sugar through the night and after a stressful emergency csection and lots of medication I have to admit I wasn't all there and thinking correctly to ask anyone to do itSad

Hoping someone can give me some reassurance that maybe this has happened to them and their DC is fine?

How old is your DD now?

Both of my dc were born very early morning and then slept all day without a feed. Honestly, don’t worry.
