A. Dear mum, it is ok. Let your baby sleep during the night. No need to wake up. Feed your baby on demand. As long as baby is passing urine more than 7 times in 24 hours, feeding is adequate.

A. Dear ma’am, that’s perfectly fine if the baby is feeding frequently during the day time, is active and has adequate wet counts then at night you can give a gap of five hours
