Mom of a 4 yr 4 m old boy4 years ago

Q.

#asktheexperts my 41 days old baby boy feeds only for 5 minutes during the night and sleeps for 4 hours. Even during the day he repeats the same. However, once or twice during the day he feeds for 1 hour. I am feeding him only breast milk. Is this okay? What should be the maximum gap between feeds? Is it okay to make him sleep on the sides for 1 hour at a stretch ?
