A. it's fine you have to give only demand feeding to the child that is whenever the child feels hungry you can give milk to the child and the child will take the milk according to the need and then will leave the milk. if the child is taking more milk you can offer milk in more quantity with intermittent burping . there is no need to to go for fixed feeding pattern. also there is no need to wake up the child from sleep if the weight of the child is within normal limits . also if the weight gain of the childd every month is normal then no need to worry regarding the pattern of breastfeeding

A. Yes in fact that is good only at least your child is sleeping throughout the night peacefully which is actually considered very healthy for overall growth physically and mentally for the child so no problems with that over the period you will see the feeding part in during the day time is also going to change
