You have to wake him up every time by gental tap on foot, and then feed the baby, breastfeeding is the best feeding.
Next Steps
visit a nurse or pediatrician and learn proper attachment for feeding the baby.

Breastfeeding is best for the baby. However, if baby is not able to feed from the breast you may express milk and feed through spoon. But always put him to breast first. Feed him every 2 hrs or earlier if baby is hungry for a week atleast , then you can feed him on demand.
Next Steps
Kindly learn the breastfeeding techniques and positions from lactation nurse or pediatrician.
