Just need some reasurance/ feedback please :flower:

I've been ebf for 2 days now- no ff top ups anymore. I felt much more confident, baby went 2-3 hours in between feeds, swallowed nicely when on the breast, slept in between feeds. Needless to say I was happy with how things were going. That was day 1.
Now since yesterday afternoon lo wants to be on the boob non stop. Like every hour- hour and half with only short periods of sleep in between.
She is 11 days old today, so it could be the 10 day old growth spurt. But due to my early supply issues I'm just concerned that it maybe her telling me she isn't getting enough?!
Is it normal for those cluster feeding sessions to go on for +16 hours at a time?
She is having wet diapers, however she only seems to poop once a day :shrug:

I can usually squeeze milk out even though she's been on the boob constantly.

Thanks for helping in advance :thumbup:
 
She's still tiny. That sounds 100% normal.

For us those feeding frenzies lasted a couple of days.
 
I agree your LO sounds totally normal :)
My DD is constantly on my boob every hour everyday unless she's asleep, she's been this way from day 1 but I've heard it doesn't last very long..xx
