Dd not eating as much??

Dd has has not been eating as much lately.  She has mostly just been snacking and only eating off one breast per feeding.  She also has not been sleeping good during the day-at the most 2 hours sometimes only 30 min.  Should I be concerned?

My Dd is doing the same thing! I even called the pedi just to be sure that I wasn't missing something. My Dd is formula fed though, they told me she still eating an appropriate amount for her age and as long as she is having enough wet diapers I didn't really need to be concerned. However this eating a small amount every 2 hours sucks, she doesn't nap worth beans on this schedule and has been grouchy. Hopefully this will change soon!

yeah i am so with you.  she is too tired to eat and the cycle just continues.  how many wet diapers is the right amount?  gl!!

Our doctor said in the 7-10 range. I had to ask, too, because Dd goes through phases where she sleeps lots and barely eats anything.  And then she swings the other way and eats like crazy and is awake all the time.
