11 week old slept 8 hours and seems not hungry

Feeding

HELP! Maybe I am freaking out but I was used to her waking at night super hungry.

She’s 11 weeks old, regained her 3.6kg birth weight at 6 weeks and is now at 5.5kg.

In the daytime, I stopped timing her feeding, she would just give me cues and I’d feed her right away but I guess yesterday I got paranoid she wasn’t getting hungry soon enough so I would feed her and she’d keep pulling back and getting mad because she wasn’t hungry. When she was actually hungry though she’d take the bottle and feed really well so I don’t think there’s anything wrong with her nor is she sick.

But tonight she fed her full bottle at 6:30PM, went to sleep fully satisfied, no fuss at all just easily slept. Then she didn’t wake until 3AM, even then she was only suckling her hand but not fussing. So I took that as a cue for hunger so I picked her up and fed her. Again, she kept pulling back and crying getting mad everytime I put the bottle in her mouth so I gave her a pacifier, reswaddled her, and she went straight back to sleep super fast.

I don’t know what is going on. 8 hours seems like too long to not be feeding especially since we just came from her being a newborn.

She used to wake at 10PM, 1AM, 3AM, 6AM. Then it became 12AM, 3AM, 6AM. Then 1AM, 4AM, 6AM. Tonight it was just at 3AM but not even hungry!
