LO milk intake

Hi! LO is currently around 2 weeks old and each time we feed her when she is hungry (hunger cues) she will only drink 20ml to 30ml and then doze off to sleep. She would then wake up again maybe another hour for milk and drank 10ml to 20ml before dozing off again. Previously she can drink up to 60ml to 90ml at one shot.. anyone encounter such situation? Note: LO has jaundice but her jaundice level has dropped. LO on BM.

Please bring LO to see a doctor soon, with jaundice in the history and a drop in milk intake like this, it is really better to have a professional check her over rather than wait and see. A 2-week-old feeding less than before can have a few different causes, some needing attention sooner, so getting that peace of mind from a doctor is the safer call here.
