Q. Hi Dr Ghouse. My babies are preterm twins (5 June 2021) . Mother's milk is not there only formula milk as per advice. My babies take almost 35-38 ounces a day. Doctor told me not to give more than 4 hours gap so I would wake my baby up and give feed. Sometimes my babies take 8-9 ounces in one feed.. They are active and digestion is normal. Sometimes projectile vomit they do.. They weight 5+ kg. I would like to know how much gap should be given in each feed and if they sleep for 6 hours without feeding is normal.. And my babies feeding is normal or not.
