Growth adequate?: If she is gaining weight and growing fine, development on track, you have the perfect baby you prayed for! the key is adequate calorie intake over 24 hours. If she is getting that nursing during the day, then her body will let her sleep at night and let those growth hormones flow during her sleep. If growth is not adequate, talk to pediatrician about what changes need to be made to schedule.
