Hi all just wondering what to do here she is 8 weeks old and normally takes 2oz every two hours now I've actually ordered the next stage teat waiting on it to arrive today to see if she will drink more but since her last bottle last night at 10pm she took maybe 3oz then which is good for her she is refusing to drink I think I've gotten maybe a total of 3oz into her since 10pm last night . She has to be hungry but isnt looking for a bottle , isn't crying doesn't have a temp and just fell back asleep now after taking 1oz was smiling at me after the 1oz. Should I be worried and contact the GP or see how the day goes ? Just worried that she is hungry and also that she would get dehydrated quickly ? Can't understand why all of a sudden she won't feed .

At this age my oldest was sleeping through from 10pm to 7am or so. She was breastfed so a difference scenario but there was no issue. As your baby is smiling and interacting Id say she just didn't need a feed at night last night.
