#asktheexperts hi My baby is three months old she is on breastfeeding for every feeding she is taking 5 to 6 hrs gap. If I try to feed before that she is crying. This much gap is okay for three months baby?

A. Dear mum, if your baby is active, alert and passing urine more than 7 times in 24 hours then your baby’s feeding is sufficient and you can continue to feed as your baby demands. Ideally, you should feed your baby on demand.
