A. For a two-month-old baby, it is generally recommended to feed every 2-4 hours. While some babies can sleep for longer stretches at night, especially if they are gaining weight well and are healthy, it is important to ensure they are getting enough nutrition. Here are a few considerations: 1. **Weight Gain:** If your baby is gaining weight appropriately and has regular wet and dirty diapers, longer stretches of sleep can be normal. 2. **Pediatrician Consultation:** It's a good idea to discuss your baby's sleep and feeding patterns with your pediatrician to ensure they are getting enough to eat. 3. **Daytime Feeding:** Ensure your baby is feeding frequently during the day to compensate for longer sleep stretches at night. If you have any concerns about your baby's feeding or sleep patterns, consulting with a healthcare professional is always the best course of action.
