Baby not drinking milk like before

2020-11-20 04:18:18
Hello Doctor...my baby has just turned 3 months old. But from past few days I have noticed a decrease in baby's appetite. Earlier baby used to feed in every 90 mins bit now it's feeds in 2hrs or 3hrs. Sometimes at night doesn't want feed for like 4hrs. Please help

Hi, As babies grow older the feeding time reduces and duration between feeds increases. This is normal
