A. During first two months you should maintain a gap of two hours between two feedings. But after completing two months it is advisable to feed your baby only on demand and do not give any forceful feeding on particular timings yes you can increase the feeding time from more than 3 hour The feeding should be done atleast 10 minutes.

A. Now you should feed your child on demand you do not decide the time the child decides the time that’s going to be the writing it could be three hours it could be four hours like you are mentioning but don’t feed from your side let your child demand for it that will help
