Advice

My little boy is 6 weeks old and doesn’t seem to be hungry- I find I’m feeding him every 4-5 hours in the day out of fear he’s not consuming enough but he never cries out for a feed. He spends a lot of the day sleeping and more recently I’ve found when he’s awake he’s seeming uncomfortable. He is showing many signs of reflux, would this cause him uncomfortable when awake? I read online that they should be consuming at least 150mls per kg, is anyone else going off this or feeding baby less when less is wanted?

Is he gaining weight - average 170g/week. And having plenty of wet and dirty nappies?

He hasn’t been weighed for a few weeks but plenty of wet nappies. Not many dirty as he has been suffering with constipation

I would try get him weighed and if he’s gaining at a steady rate of about 170g/week, I would continue to take his lead 😊
