A. hi, your baby is 5 months old now your baby is not getting adequate breast milk which is causing him to awaken after short period during th night sleep .

A. this is because your 5 months old baby isn't getting adequate amount of breast milk. how is your supply?? is the baby putting fingers in her mouth and crying? this is mostly hunger cues . please try to boost your milk supply bu having high protein meal. also if you still feel the baby is crying for feeds multiple times thought the night then start with good formula. my sister had emergency c section and her supply was poor. she wasn't able to feed our 4 months nephew well and the baby used to cry once in an hour for feed. our doctor suggested us to start with Aptamil Gold stage 1 formula as it is close to breast milk and contains goodness of probiotics and HMOs which is great for baby's growth and development
