Dear Curly,

Unfortunately the midwife you saw has given you very incorrect and misleading information. At this stage your baby's behaviour seems fairly normal. I wonder what this midwife would be suggesting your baby drink? Your breastmilk is the most perfect food available to your baby.
Your baby seems to be feeding well and frowing well. Two big ticks. her feeding pattern sounds normal for a baby this age. However, her little gut is brand new - never been tried before. Chances are things will change as she grows and develops. In the early days one breast is usually enough for babies. Over time they graduate to having both breasts. I think at this stage all you need to do is take a "wait and see approach". If the wind becomes more of a problem rather than less, I would look to whether there is a family of allergies or food intolerances - but only if there is a problem. There's no point in trying to fix something that isn't necessarily broke!
