A. Namaste Mom, There is no fixed time and duration of the feed and feeding, as the quality and quantity of the feed varies and babies take as per their requirement

A. Hello good morning !! As the babies pass urine, stool very often , frequent feeding is a must for every 2-3 hours . After 3-4 months you can schedule the baby's night routine - sleeping at a stretch for 3-4 helps but you need to give feed every 2-3 hours to avoid thirst and dehydration. Once the baby starts taking semi solids that is after 8-9 months due to tummy filling they sleep more hours.
