EBF at night only,

Hi mums ! Question, my 12 week old girl I'm breast feeding and then before bed time my husband gives her a bottle, it's been around 70-100mls every night but the last couple days it's been around 50 mls . She also hasn't pooped but I know that can be normal. I'm just worried she's not having enough

Keep an eye on her wet nappies if she's producing plenty of them thrn she's getting enough milk. Also keep a look out for hunger cues

We had this with my daughter we found that she didn’t poop when she wasn’t getting enough. We swapped breast milk for formula before bed and it make such a difference. She has EBM the rest of the time xx

I think there's a point they stop pooping overnight and just wee instead?

A lot of babies get constipated too which is normal look at which formula she is having my 9 week old is on hungry babies as normal formula or anti reflux wasn’t filling her up enough but again constipation can be a common problem in babies but can get lactose from your doctor and give small amount once/twice a month 1/2ml so there bowels don’t get reliant on it
