my 2.5 month old baby is feeding almost 1-1.5 hour, is he not getting enough milk. Also, at night he goes 3-4 hours between feeds and his weight gain is adequate. Is every hour feeding normal?

A. Hello mom babies live to latch on which seems he is drinking but he has taken as much he needs and rest just latch on .. so while feeding make sure you are talking or singing to him , maintain an eye contact
