Q. My baby is little more than 2 weeks old(born in starting of 9th month). He sleeps most of time in day and even doesn't wake up for feed sometimes after a gap of 3 hours. And when we try to wake him up, he takes milk while sleeping so drinks very less. What can be done to wake him up? He wakes at night for 2-3 hours in shifts.
