dehydration & BFing

[trixipaws]

i suspect my baby is slightly dehydrated because her soft spot is slightly sunken (not visibly, i just noticed when i stroked her hair). can i fix this by feeding her more foremilk by swapping sides frequently?

Slightly sunken is totally normal and nothing to worry about

If you feel that would make you happier then why not try it.I cant answer the question as i didnt breastfeed, but in theory it works.

when annabelle was sleeping through (oh how i wish she would again ) she would wake up with a sunken bit but it would be puffed back out again by lunch time so was nothing to worry about. As long as its not there all day and night id not worry too much

Yeah please don't worry about it too much as long as she still has wet nappies
