A. This is normal. Babies are playful as they grow older. Try to rub his ears and turn his head towards you in between whenever he gets to distract. Try to feed in a dimly lit room where he doesn't have much things or people to deviate his attention. If nothing works you can feed on demand or more frequently. It could be bit tiring but this phase will move on. And babies will start taking more feed in one go as the grow older as they will be sucking faster than before. Your baby should be peeing anywhere between six to ten times a day which means the baby is taking feeds properly. Also there should be a gradual weight gain. Keep a check on these factors.
