Feeding issue

2022-10-02 21:33:31
My baby is 45 days old...he is on breastfeeding and from few days he is drinking only for 5 min and that too from one side only and after that he is sleeping...I'm trying to wake him up but no use...my milk flow is very good...I'm worrying because it would affect his growth.. Please suggest anything to increase time for feeding Thanks in advance.

in first six months the minimum weight gain should be 500 mg per month and it can go up to 1 kg per month also. the urine output should be more than 6 to 7 times per day. the child should sleep after taking feeding. meet the doctor for weight assessment. if the above criteria is achieved then the child is having adequate milk intake. if the growth of the child is proper there is no need to worry about the sleeping pattern/ feeding as well as the stool frequency of the child
