Hello doctor, my son is 1 month old weight 3.250 kg. He is taking feeding after every 2 to 3 hours during day time but sleeps for 4 to 5 hour during night. Is it fine to let him sleep or should I wake him up during night also?

A. Dear mum, it is fine to let your baby sleep during night time and feed only when your baby wakes up. You should feed as per your baby’s demand, which is whenever baby wants and how much baby wants.
