A. At night there is no need to feed a one year old child every two hours. You may feed milk once at late night around 11 and again early morning at around 5 am. During the day time you can give three meals a day along with a mid morning and evening snack. 500ml milk per day is sufficient for a one year old baby.

Q. #asktheexpert baby sleeps longer and sometimes doesn’t wake up for feeds. As the doctors suggested to feed every two hours once, baby in deep sleep gets this challenging. Other thing when wakes up, he makes sure he gets continuous feeds till satisfied. Is the two hour rule to be followed in this case if yes how to make the baby wake up from sleep for feeds Thanks.
