A. dear mum, there is no need to feed your baby every 2 hours or at a fixed time interval. you should feed your baby on demand that is whenever baby wants and how much baby wants.

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much and babies change their sleeping patterns many time in first year and don’t need to change it . Please massage your baby with almond oil and olive oil. Take care
