A. You should always feed the baby on demand. The baby needs to be fed every 2-3 hours. But if the baby is sleeping, you can extend the duration to around 3-4 hours and then try to wake up your baby and then feed. Always wash your hands before handling the baby. Always keep a hand sanitizer handy. Check Babyhug Alcohol Based Hand Sanitizer : It kills 99.9% germs within 30 seconds. It is enriched with glycerin to moisturize your hands. It provides rinse free and rapid disinfection.
