2 months baby- how often should feed
How often should I feed a 2 months-1 week baby. Sometimes my baby won't wakeup like 6 hours even I try to wake him up. Is it common? Is it ok even he won't drink milk for 6 hrs? Please suggest.

No. He should be fed every 3-4 hours . Even if he is sleeping, please wake him up by rubbing near his ears or  tapping the soles. For further queries kindly book an online video appointment with me. Take care!
