#AskTheExpert my five months old takes feed only for 5-15 minutes during the day as he is always super excited. At night he feeds for longer. He pees 7-8 times during the day. Is it ok or should I try to make him take feed longer during the day?

A. Dear ma’am, that’s perfectly fine if the baby is otherwise active, playful, achieving the developmental milestones and is also gaining weight steadily then need not worry about the duration of feeding
