#asktheexpert My baby boy is 2.5 months old, gained 1.5 kg after his birth so far. During nights he is not waking up from sleep for milk, though I Try to wake him up and breastfeed him, he is not drinking milk during nights, but during day he drinks milk time to time, is this a worrisome case?

A. Most babies are able to sleep through the night – or sleep for at least six hours without waking up to eat – sometime between 3 to 6 months of age. Healthy babies who are born full-term are generally able to sleep through the night without a feeding starting at 3 months of age or when they weigh 12 to 13 pounds.
