Question
Is it normal for a 2-month-old baby to breastfeed every 5 hours?
Answer
There is no fixed feeding frequency for babies who are exclusively breastfed. The most scientifically recommended feeding method is on-demand feeding, which means feeding the baby whenever they cry or show signs of hunger. There is no need to strictly regulate the number of feedings, intervals, or the amount of milk. You should always observe the baby’s needs and allow them to eat as much as they want when they feel hungry.
