Thankyou I'll keep an eye out and mention to health visitor next. Also my girl still hasn' got any sort of feeding routine it fluctuates from 1/2 ounce to 3ounces sometimes could be within a hour and half up to 3nd half. Nd she dribbles it out majority of the time. What could be wrong ?

Nothing remember she is new to the world she’s learning how to feed. This is normal some babies get routine easy some don’t. She will get used to it as the days go on. Check her tongue make sure not tongue tied but it’s normal for newborns to feed on and off with no routine yet. Xx

As long as she has wet nappies she’s getting enough fluid

It’s so normal. I have 3 boys youngest is one and they all worried me. They are all different. Plus sleep deprivation and recovering from Birth adds to your worries. Glad I could help xx
