A. So Your child is not demanding for any feed for at least two hours after taking 1 breastfeeding from you that means your child is getting sufficient breastfeeding from you it can go up to 2 to 3 hours also depending upon the kind of feed the child is getting far from you but if your child is crying even after taking feed from you or is demanding for a feed every half an hour one hour or so that means that the breast feeding giving is not sufficient for the child
