My 37 weeker, ds, was very very sleepy and not such a great nurser bc of it. It took a couple weeks of having to bother him a lot to wake him up to nurse- undressing, burping, tickling, etc. he did eventually "wake up" and became a great nurser, so don't give up hope! As long as you are getting her on the breast ever 2 hours and waking her up enough to get her to nurse for 10 or 15 minutes, you will probably be fine. We had to do a few weighed feedings to make sure, and it ended up fine.
