My baby is 4 months and 18!days old. Of late she tends to sleep the whole night in one stretch and does not cry in the night for milk. Is it ok to let her sleep without feeding for a good 9 hour stretch or should I feed her in between even if she does not cry.

A. Dear ma’am, there can be a gap of four to five hours max at night if the baby is receiving frequent feeds during the day, has adequate wet counts and weight is also appropriate
