can’t tell if my 6 day old is getting enough to eat.
i had my baby 6 days ago and in the hospital we had trouble with her bilirubin levels. i’m trying to breastfeed but i also mix the formula with it so it’s like one part formula one part breast milk in each bottle. her poops and pees have been so different each day i just don’t know if she’s getting enough to eat to keep her healthy. we haven’t been to the pediatrician yet because we spent 4 days in the hospital after she was born and went yesterday to the hospital for an in-between check up. they said she’s fine, and i’m sure it’s just ftm anxiety but i really can’t tell if she’s having enough to eat because her diaper changes have been so different each day. one day she’s going like crazy and the next she hasn’t pooped in 24 hours. i tried just formula and that’s when she stopped popping, i tried to have her latch but i can’t tell if she’s actually getting anything. idk what to do anymore. if anyone has any advice please share.
edit: she was also born at 36 weeks 6days if that changes anything. thank you.
