A. During first two months you should maintain a gap of two hours between two feedings. But after completing two months it is advisable to feed your baby only on demand and do not give any forceful feeding on particular timings The feeding should be done atleast 10 minutes. but don't overfeed

A. Your child is gaining exceptionally well so I would say the correct method to feed the child is actually on demand now specially because now your child would have a better sense the sleep is also going to reduce comparatively as it was previously so if you feed your child on demand that’s good and healthy will avoid vomiting issues and over feeding to the child
