A. hi baby should be fed on demand ideally best practice is to exclusively breastfeed baby till 6 months complete if baby is hungry you should try Breastfeeding rather than more of bottle feeding there are disadvantages of bottle like risk of infection and nipple confusion so baby refuses to take breastfeed
