A. thank you for reaching out to us with your question I would suggest try to breastfeed as much as possible that is at least one every two hours and each feeding session would be 20 minutes each if you must formula feat then please do that only under the supervision of your pediatrician and only as advised by him I delete there should be a gap of at least two to three hours between a formula feed and a breastfeeding session
