#AskTheExpert lately my son is too distracted and his feeds also has reduced. if i try to feed every 2 hrs he is being cranky. he can sleep without feeds for like 4 to 5 hrs also at night. what could be the reason

A. Many babies will cry, fuss, pull off the breast, etc. if they need to burp. Try to burp between breasts and after a feeding, but don't worry if baby does not burp and is content. Breastfed babies overall don't take in as much air during a feeding as bottle-fed babies do, so usually don't need to burp as often.
