2 month old eating less frequently

My 2 month old is not nursing as frequently and sleeping more. I thought it was due to the growth spurt because of the sleeping. I haven't kept a close eye on diaper output but from what I remember I'm sure she had at least 4-5 diapers yesterday and one was heavily saturated due to a long sleep. Well she woke this morning with an overnight diaper and it was medium yellow. Not light but not dark. Should I worry about dehydration? She's also been distracted a lot more during nursing lately and nurses for shorter periods. I know I have enough milk because I basically drown her with my let downs still. Thanks for any advice.

Also, she refuses the breast anytime I offer and she's not asking for it. She gets very frustrated with cluster feeding, so latching her when she's not hungry doesn't work much.

Really don't worry about shorter feeds, she'll be much more efficient at getting the milk out by now.

How does she seem in herself? Is she bright and alert at times? Does she look plumpish or skinny?
