A. 8 to 10 hours is too big time gap.. do wake him up and feed. feed as often as they seem hungry or want comforted, offer more breastfeeds, feed from both breasts at each breastfeed.

A. Hi Yes absolutely because that’s the right way to go about it see how we sleep well through the night and take or eat something in the morning itself is a similar thing with kids also so if you see your child is sleeping for 10 hours and taking a feed after waking up in the morning and that also is perfectly normal
