A. hi all babies are different so they have their own specific sleep and feeding patterns. so if your child looks happy healthy and active , gains enough weight then no need to worry about anything. just ensure that your child should pass urine at least 7 or 8 times in a day because a good urine output indicates that your child is getting enough milk.
