A. Hello dear parent! Can be due to colic issues. An ideal gap between 2 feeds is 2 hours. Do not lay down the baby immediately after feeding. Hold your baby in upright position for sometime and gently rub on the back till the baby burps. Do cycling movements with both the legs of your baby to relieve from gastric discomfort. Continue breastfeeding your baby well on demand.
