A. Infants usually do not demand for milk as their sleeping pattern is still not set. In 1 month, you should feed in every 2-3 hours which should include atleast 2 times night feed too. Depending on your milk flow, you should nurse for atleast 15-20 minutes from each side and keep massaging the breasts to improve milk secretion.
