I never really kept track of how often DD was feeding, but I'd guess around every 2 hours or so. Generally whenever she cried I offered the boob if it had been a while since she last ate, and almost always she would drink some. She recently had her 3 month growth spurt and I think it has ended now. For the past 2 days or so I felt like she didn't feed very much at all, my boobs were very full and when I tried to feed her she would eat a bit and pull off even though milk was still squirting out. Then last night before bed and also once today she has just screamed at the boob, and wouldn't latch at all, and both times fell right off to sleep, so clearly she was just tired and not hungry. Today so far she has only eaten twice, at 7am and again around 11am. I tried feeding her again just now (1pm) and she wasn't having any of it, she just wanted to sleep. Is it normal for her to begin feeding so infrequently now? I remember DD1 dropped to 4-hourly feeds at some point, but I thought she was older, like 4/4.5 months. I'm just worried that the growth spurt increased my supply and then now if she doesn't feed often, will it decrease again?
