My newborn wants to latch every hour. Is that normal? Hospital said it should be every 3 hours...am I "spoiling her" if I let her latch and suck every hour?

Newborn tummy is very small, and breastmilk is easily digested so it is no wonder that frequent feeding is required. My gynae had advised me to feed on demand if I am breastfeeding since we don't know how much he had. As long as there is enough wet diapers a day, that's fine
