A. Hello good morning !! baby's weight is fine , yes by 3-5 months babies sleep schedule changes sleeps at a stretch of 3- 4 hours.. You can wait for 3 hours but give feed every 2-3 hours , you can wake baby by gently rubbing baby feet, gently touching baby ear help baby to latch baby will have dream feed which helps in hydration. But make sure to give in correct feeding positions and burp well after feed.
