A. you have to give only demand feeding to the child that is whenever the child feels hungry you can give milk to the child and the child will take the milk accocrding to the need and then will leave the milk. if the child is taking more milk you can offer milk in more quantity wixth intermittent burping . there is no need to to go for hourly feeding pattern. also there is no need to wake up the child from sleep if the weight of the child is within normal limits

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much and if baby pee count is above 6 to 8 times a day that means baby is having sufficient milk and also give baby semi solid food after six months. Take care
