Feeding small quantity in many intervals

2022-01-25 17:58:26
My baby girl is 4 month old. From last 7 days I have observed that she is taking very small feed in many intervals ( 50-60ml in 6 times in 9 hours) in night ( sleeping hours). It is very exhausting for me. She is taking expressed breastmilk. Total breast milk she is consumed 900-1000 ml in one day. My question is : is she oky? Why this changes in feeding pattern happens all of sudden in night time. FYI she is active and weight 6.5 kg. Thanks in advance

It is normal for infants to change feeding pattern suddenly.Sometimes you cannot change it even if you try to.  You can express and give overnight.
