Hi my baby is 6 weeks old. He's expecting to be fed every time after peeing or poop. Is it normal? If I stop, he's crying. This is not giving enough time for me to produce Milk as per his need.

On average, most exclusively breastfedalert icon babies will feed about every 2 to 4 hours. Some babies may feed as often as every hour at times, often called cluster feeding. Or may have a longer sleep interval of 4 to 5 hours. How often your baby feeds might change depending on the time of day. Some feeding sessions may be long, and others short. That is okay. Babies will generally take what they need at each feeding and stop eating when they are full. They should seem content and drowsy after feeding when they have had enough milk. Your baby will breastfeed about 8 to 12 times in 24 hours.
