Baby is 5months23 days,Weight 6.9kg,stools are mustard-yellow with seed-like particles.We are having issue breast feeding him when he is awake, He cries and refuses, and pull his body back. We have to fall him asleep to breast feed him, In sleep he drinks milk for 5min only, we are experience it from his birth. His day time nap is not more than 30min. In nights, he awake's after 1-2 hours,sleeps when breast feeded. We consulted pediatricians, they checks weight/height and say it is normal.

Indeed,weight is good,give 1 solid meal and 5-6 milk feeds,one which should be top milk. Babies can sleep for 10-12 hours at this age,in small stretches,don't wake him up for feeds,let him demand one.
