A. It's absolutely normal for baby to drink less breast milk if she is eating a significant amount of solid foods. She's simply beginning to move toward a more “grown up” diet. If you think it's because she's just too distracted to breastfeed, though, try moving feedings to a dark, quiet room.Baby seems very sleepy or lethargic. ...Baby takes too little or too much time at the breast. ...Latching is painful or appears shallow. ...Baby hasn't regained their birth weight by 10-14 days old or weight gain is slower than expected.In fact, most babies will sleep right through their typical feeding schedules. Don't be alarmed if your baby is eating less during a growth spurt, and don't wake her up for feedings as there are important physiological developments taking place during sleep.
