Since 1 week my 4 month old son used to drink approx 110- 100 ml milk at around 10.30-11.00pm, then he takes his next fred at 5.30 am (approximately 120 ml). Is it necessary to feed in between? His weight is 8kgs. Previously he used to have one night feed at around 3 am.

A. Hello mom as they are growing the need would also increase as well too. So would rather suggest that gradually try to increase the quantity of the feed and observe for the change.
