If passing urine adequately, approx 6 diapers a day, you feel the heaviness in breast is gone after feed , shouldn't be an issue Weight check at 1 month of age to be done , If adequate nothing to worry about

If sleeping well after feeds for 2-3 hours, passing 6-8 times urine in a day, gaining weight, feeling of emptiness in breast after feeding , no need to worry.
