Mom of a 5 yr 2 m old girl4 years ago

Q.

Sir, is it normal for a 5 month old baby to feed every 2-3 hours as it was in earlier months? I have heard that baby should feed after longer intervals and for shorter duration. She feeds for one hour and even more sometimes Is it okay And she is on complete breastfeeding
