its been the same with Pranav too , he losts appetite too , arshiya i also give mostly pumped milk in bottles and try to feed him once in a day from me to help with the supply . Also Jaya pranav also had been passing stool after every meal and we showed him to doc and they say may be its Gastroentertis which is kinda stomachbug , and it will go on its own no medicaments were given .
But for hunger doc says not to worry it seems any amount between 500 ml to 800 at this point is okay .
Hope our little ones eat well and stay healthy .
Ciao

I think Ashna is als having same problem since last couple of days. I am trying to give her a bottle now to get her used to it and I completely stopped breastfeeding now, I just pump and give her in the bottle. She used to feed every 2-2 1/2 hr before but now she drinks about 1 1/2 oz of milk every 4 hrs. I think it's pretty less comparing to b4 but I think as they grow up they feed less often, so maybe she is going through that change righnow. Vindhya, she is also having less wet diapers, which is ok too because they are supposed to reduce wet diapers comparing to their first month.
But, surely talk to her doc about this, and as long as they are gaining weight it should be fine.

Arshiya Vindhya replied. Hi Jaya,

My baby too has lost her appetite. The 4-5 minutes feeding has reduced to 2-3 minutes, and the number of wet diapers has also reduced. She has an appointment next week, and I shudder to think about how much she'll be weighing then. I had been giving Gripe water for indigestion, but it isn't helping much. I will definitely talk to her doctor and will let you know what he says. You must contact Diya's doctor as well for his/her advice.

I use Johnson's baby oil for massaging. I massage her scalp 30 minutes before giving bath. I am doing this as she has cradle crap. Her skin is very dry, but haven't been applying anything.

Love to Diya,
Vindhya
