Feeding frequency.
My baby was 2440g at birth. After 23 days his weight was 3050g. I was waking him up and feeding every 2 hours till now. Now he is one month old. Should I continue to wake him up every 2 hours? Or can I feed on demand now? If yes, what is the maximum time he can sleep after feeding?
