How much a one month old baby needs milk for each feed? My son demands sometimes every 1 hour and sometimes he sleeps for 3-4 hrs nd then he drinks milk whenever he is awake. Is this normal or I should keep track through pumping my milk?

A. Dear mum, there is no need to keep track of your baby’s feeding. The feeding intake varies from baby to baby. Feed baby on demand that is whenever baby wants and how much baby wants.
