What do I do?

Question

My doctor told me to feed my baby every 2-3 hours but he’s always sleep and doesn’t want to wake up to eat. So how do I get him to wake up and eat?

Answer

If baby is gaining weight and wetting diapers, only feed on demand

Answer

My son used to be like this! at the hospital they taught me to undress him change his nappy and usually he would wake if not the lactation consultant said to touch his face with a wet wash cloth.
He would also fall asleep very easily while feeding, so I would express milk so that I knew he was getting the right enough milk.
For now I would follow what your drs advice is and feed on demand or at least 2-3 hours.
