A. hi dear This means you may be up around the clock feeding your baby for the first few months. This is normal and expected. If your baby is sucking on his fist, rooting, or licking his lips, he or she might be fighting sleep because of hunger. Be sure you know your baby's hunger cues so you can rule hunger out.
