1 Answer

ExpertRamya RamachandranNutritionist4 years ago

A. Dear ma’am, ideally feeding on demand I always best. However if the baby doesn’t ask for a feed for more than three hours then it’s advisable to schedule the feeding atleast in the initial few months to support growth and to help them meet their nutrient requirements
