#AskTheExpert My son is one month old. He is not waking up at night for feeding. How often we need to feed the baby at night? Do i need to disturb him while sleep and feed? Am feeding the baby every two hours during day time.

A. I don't recommend waking babies for nighttime feedings, because you want them to sleep. However, I would suggest you wake them for night feedings in their first couple of weeks if they haven't yet gained back their birth weight -- babies tend to lose 10% of their weight after they're born.
