Its normal. As the baby grows, frequency of feeds will decrease. 1st 6 months, only mother feed. Then u can start ceralac. Not right now

Feed on demand. No need to feed every 2 hours. No solids till 6 completed months. And after 6 months also no readymade packaged cerelac please. Can give homemade Cerelac.
