Brief Answer:
Don't worry you can wait and watch for another 3-4 days.

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thank you for choosing healthcare magic. The following are few symptoms that you have to be concerned about and may need doctor consultation :
1)baby not accepting feeds
2) continuously crying
3)vomiting
4) diarrhoea
5)high grade fever
6)any confluent rash on body
7) excessive sleeping without taking feeds.
8)severe constipation
As your baby is accepting feeds and doesn't have any of the above mentioned symptoms, you can wait and watch for 3 more days. Even after 3 days, if you find your child to be inactive, then you may consult a pediatrician once.
But for now you don't need to worry at all. There are active and inactive days for kids. It's quite common. Excessively hot weather can also cause the baby to get tired easily and can make baby inactive.
Feed the baby more number of times to avoid dehydration.
Hope i have answered your question. Please let me know if you need any further assistance. Thank you. Take care.
