Dropping feeds


So Pickle is BFed on demand but it does follow a pattern:

7.30-8am
9-9.30am
11am
12-12.30pm
3-4pm
6pm
8pm
9-10pm

All these are rough times but she seems to be dropping some of the feeds - generally fom the ones I've highlighted - do I need to worry??

They know when they are hungry and as long as long as she is happy and putting on weight then there is no prob.

Well I've been to get her weighed this morning and she's 13lb 13oz. She's following the 91st percentile line exactly - she's stuck to it like glue!!

So I'll keep going with the flow for now. I was a bit concerned about dropping my nightly formula tops ups in favour of BM top ups but she's growing and sleeping fine still so if it aint broke I wont fix it!

My MIL thinks she's getting too big and I'm feeding her too much so it was really reassuring to see her line showing her to be very 'average' !!
