Mom of a 5 yr old boy4 years ago

Q.

Hi. My son 4.5 months old is not drinking enough milk. Feeding only for 3 or 5 mins and then starts playing. sleeping continuously during night. Even if I wake him up for feed, he doesn't drink. He is rejecting both breast milk and bottlefeed. What is happening to him? I'm very much worried.
