My baby is 2 months old. She’s a short feeder (7min ) is the maximum time she takes BM. She sleeps throughout the night for 7hours without feed. Her weight gain and urine output is good. Should i wake her to feed or should I feed when she demands ?

A. sleeping for long 7 hours without feed is not good so you should feed the baby after every 3-4 hours at night to keep her well hydrated. you can feed in lying in position as well. keep the baby in elevated position with the support of your arm.
