How to keep my baby awake during breast feeding, especially during night time? I don't want to bottle feed him but once he is on breast he sleeps n then when I put him on bed he gets up as his feeding was not complete. So what can we do to keep him awake have tried tickling, and all possible things but no use. He just keeps the nipple in mouth n sleeps n once nipple is our he cries. Plz suggest, when he starts giving us cues of hunger then only we start him feeding not when he is too hungry
