A. Please avoid feeding the baby while the baby is sleeping. Always feed the baby on demand. Always feed the baby in an upright position. Initially, the babies sleep a lot. Just make sure that the baby passes urine for atleast 6-8 times in a day. If the baby does that, then the baby is getting enough to eat.
