Q.

Hi all, my son is 2 months 13 days old (73 days). He will sleep a lot in the day time and he will have the milk for every 5 hours. It's very tough to wake him up forcefully. Is it fine not having milk for 2-3 hours but having for every 5-6 hours at this age?

A. Sleeping pattern of small babies is very different and if the child is not having any discomfort or any cause like infantile colicc nasal blockage or any pain and if the child is playful and taking proper feeding so this pattern will get normal with time

A. Hello dear parent, if your baby is exclusively breast fed baby then it is required to wake up fmyour baby every 2 to 3 hours for feed. But if baby is formula milk fed then you can give a break of 4 hours. Good luck and take care
