Feed on demand. And try to feed till the breast feels empty to give proper nutrition. If giving expressed milk then around 60- 100ml at each feed 2-3 hours apart

if u r breast feeding, then feed on demand; if u r spoon feeding then 50 to 80 ml per 2 hourly if the baby passes urine more than 5 times in 24 hrs, it means he is adequately breastfed
