A. It is recommended to night feed the baby only till 4 months and after that, it is fine to let him/her take spund and long night sleep of 6-7 hours. You can feed in every 3-4 hours or 5-6 times a day. Now that baby is in 5th month, some basic semi solid foods can also be introduced in the diet for complete nutrition.

Q. Hi my baby just turned 5 month old. I breastfeed her and also give formula but the amount of formula a 5 month old baby takes that is 210 ml (written on the packet) she does not take that full she only takes 120 ml. I give this much amount of formula 4 times a day and breastfeed her throughout the day. So is it okay or her diet is low.
