5 mths old ( corrected age 3 mths ) baby

My baby was born premie and currently she is 5 mths old and corrected age is 3 mths. She was born 10 weeks early and her birth weight was 1229 gms. Since birth there hasn't been much issue apart from slow weight gain. In NICu she was gaining between 150-200gms per week as she was on fortified breast milk. When she was given discharge she weighed 2490 gms at 39 weeks. Post that she did breastfeeding( shallow latch) and expressed breastmilk. Week 1 post discharge she only gained 80gms.So paediatrician suggested to fortify her breastmilk with formula. We started giving her 150 ml of fortified breastmilk and she in some weeks gained betn 150-200gms.Post that I wanted her to be on complete breastfeeding and under guidance of lactation who suggested to stop formula and only breastfeed baby on demand. (Before this baby use to feed every 3 hours). 1st week only breastfeeding- no increase in weight, 2nd week expressed breastmilk top up- 120 gms and 3rd week only 100 gms. What could be the issue

My 6 weeks old does not sleep properly

My 6 weeks boy sleeps only 3 hours in a day and he will not sleep straight 8 hours and sleeps at 1 am in the night. He takes very short naps while feeding and he demands feeding continuously. I am really worried as it is always said babies need more sleep and its important for their development. Is it fine if he sleeps overall 10 hours in 24 hours.
