Normal baby sleeps a lot but also feed a lot like every 2-3 hours. Maybe take your baby to paediatric clinic for check to be safe. Low Yat forum may not be a suitable place to consult with especially infant this young.
1 tip I always follow: Never take your baby out to public places before they are less than 6 months old. Anyway, it is a learning experience if this is your 1st child. |

Is your child currently weaning on breast milk? Or formula? Even so, he should be waking up every 2-3 hours to latch or cry for milk.
If it continues, best to seek professional advice from a doctor. |

Probably need to let him get used to latching also. I understand that babies often feel comfortable when they're placed closed to your chest. How does he go about getting fed then since you shared that he's not really drinking regularly? Anyhow, noticed that you're on Probation so likely you're unable to reply further for today. Hope you're able to get your son to take his milk intake regularly. viviram liked this post

Let the baby latch on for breast milk after 2-3hrs. Although sleeping you can try to press at the baby's cheek sort of to wake the baby up a little. Baby should start to suck for a while before sleeping again. Continue this repeatedly until you feel your breast is less engorged. viviram liked this post

This continues 24 x 7. Best to have a paed look into it? Usually babies at this age tend to cry if not fed on time... Could be signs of lethargy if he falls asleep so quickly and without finishing his milk too. Hopefully things are alright. viviram liked this post

QUOTE(lalakiki @ Aug 5 2020, 10:08 AM) We have shown now to 3 pediatrician already. They all say that he is fine. One suggested there may be block in his nose due to cough or vomiting the milk. So started nasal drops. One doc asked to keep in observation for 2 days. But since its COVID we rejected the idea. Since its our first all say there be anxiety too. So posted here if we can interact parents with similar situations or with much experience. |

Perhaps you can try several type of feeding bottles, each of them have different type of teats, try and error. I had use a several brand and found out that MAM is the best that accept by my both kids whom now 2 years+ and 1 month+
