My baby boy is 2 months 20days old, since a week he is sleeping for about 5 to 6hrs in the night and is not waking up for milk. He is on exclusive BM. He demands for milk every 2 to 3hrs in the day and is sleeping continuously in the night. Should I wake him up every 3hrs for feed in the night or should I let him demand for milk? What should be ideal sleeping time for 3months baby in the night?
