My Son is 6 months old and if he sleeps at night 11pm he wakes up at 5am but sometimes wakes up directly at 7am in the morning. Is it necessary to wake him up in the middle of the night to feed?

Baby is now 6 months old, so by this age mostly they have developed habit of demand feeding. So if baby don't get up for feeds it's okay no need to wake him up.
Next Steps
No need to worry and continue with demand feeding
