A. You Do not have to wake up your child if your child is sleeping like this let your child be slowly gradually the pattern is going to change but the correct thing to go ahead with this to feed your child only on demand if your child is behaving like this it’s normal but then if your child is sleeping properly after that and that’s good enough
