A. If baby is gaining proper weight then nothing to worry about and you can feed the baby according to baby's demand Baby may sometimes sleep 18 to 20 hours in A-day , but you need to wake them properly by either pinching on the legs or tickling and feed every 3 hours at least

A. For newborns you have to feed every 2-3 hours for at least 1 &1/2 months.

A. Yes it can affect the baby weight firstly check the milk supply from mother breast if it is less then u can opt for powder milk to feed ur baby so that he gets the milk throughout the day 2ndly if u want to wake ur baby just rotate ur finger in circular direction behind his ear still if the baby doesnt wake up tickle on his feets he will get up then you can feed him well.

A. Hi Feed frequently. It's quite normal in newborns .That's how they function. It's not a concern. After few months they will start to follow a sleep routine. Follow a sleep pattern ensure to put your baby to sleep at the same time every day. Feed a little more during night hours for good sleep.
