My daughter is 21days old. I use to feed her every 2-3 hrs earlier but later she herself started waking up at 2-3 hrs interval for feeding. Yesterday night she slept at 1.00 am in the night and woke up at 5.00 am in the morning. Is it okay to keep such larger intervals between feeds?

A. hi yes ,its ok you just need to check if child weighs enough and passes urine around 7 or 8 times in a day. because a healthy weight gain and good urine output indicates that your child is getting enough milk.
