Q. #asktheexpert mother of one month old baby. Sometimes baby leaves feed within 10 min and may demand feed within 1 hour. In such case I have to feed from same side or switch to the other side. My paediatrician has asked me to feed for 15 min at every 2-3 hours or on demand, at every alternate side.
