Cluster feeding 3 weeks old

Double check little ones actually hungry and not just fighting sleep, mine kept showing hunger cues in a weird way to tell us she was constipated 😬

I understand you perfectly; there was a time when I went from doctor to doctor, but they all said the exact same thing: be patient, and let the baby nurse for as long as they want. The reason for this might be that even if she nurses, not enough milk comes from the milk ducts, and the treatment is more intensive nursing. The second reason is that she might be restless and anxious. The only solution is for her to feel close to you, gain your trust, and relax. I know it's very tiring, but it's a temporary phase, and you'll return to your old life soon.

My health visitor warned me that 3 weeks is one of the most intense growth spurts for baby. She advised they will cry loads and want to be constantly fed and held . It’s supposed to last 2-3 days . And then they will sleep loads in the next few days so it does get better . We have just come out of our 10 day growth spurt so I know how exhausting it is .
