My 11 day old newborn wants to feed all the time (barring when she is sleeping). She literally would feed every 1.5 hours!
When she is done, she squirms around a bit after like she has gas. I hope that I am not overfeeding her, and/or creating an oversupply for me.
She is likely close to her birthweight (I go to pedi tomorrow) and I have been feeding on demand. But demand is high! I just want to make sure I shouldn't limit the feedings. Sometimes I think she is comfort nursing, but she won't take a pacifier, just the nipple.
Also, how efficient should a newborn of this age be when feeding? Sometimes both breasts take 45 minutes, other times over an hour, other times only 30 minutes. I am just unsure of what she is getting, how much, etc.
Thanks for any help on this!
