my baby 3 months 13 days now..my baby schedule is like sleeps at night 10 30 (feeds for every two hours till morning ) and wakes up at 8 30 morning..have feed for 10 minutes and does not drink and plays 1 hour..at sharp 9 30 again starts feeling hungry..drinks few for 10 minutes..plays for 20 to 30 minutes..have bath by 10 30 and sleeps by 11 30 till 12 30..again plays 1 hour..sleeps 1 hour same continues till night 10 30..

also my baby feeds only left side and after drowsy takes right side..

am not understanding why my baby takes less milk..doesnot take tummy fill..after taking for few minutes he turns his head and plays..

my milk supply is also good.. due to less baby feeding..baby gets hungry quickly and takes milk again and again..

most of the babies feed for every two hours...am worried as this could impact growth

Sleeping pattern of small babies vary from one child to another and if there is no discomfort or any cause like infantile colic ,nasal blockage or any kind of  pain and if the child is playful  and taking proper feeding there is nothing to worry,have patience , this pattern will get normal with time.just keep monitoring your baby for comfortable position and temperature.
every baby has its own sleeping pattern which keeps changing with age,only after 5-6 mons of age you can  establish a regular sleep cycle gradually with time n age. too much of light and noise may interfere, avoid any excess screen time, fix a regular time,
do not allow day time sleep which us not so necessary  ,
massage the feet of thpare baby for a relaxed and undisturbed sleep. gentle rocking and patting of the baby, singing a lullaby, and light music will also play a good role.
lesser the noise and better the sleep.a sound sleep of 8-10 hrs with a proper diet is sufficient for child's health.

Try Give formula feeding to the child at least one time and see if there is a difference if you see the difference that your child is not demanding for a feed for at least two hours or a little more that means what I’m saying is correct

what should be done to solve this

Accepted Answer

Your Milk may be sufficient but it not me not be as thick as it is supposed to be see you to understand the consistency also does make a difference if your milk is thin like more water but quantity is good it is not going to fill up your child for a longer time so I believe that the milk you are giving to the child your breast feed is not thick enough
