Should I wake baby

Helena

My baby is 9 weeks old today but he was 4 weeks early, so here's technically 5 weeks old. We used to be in a triple feeding schedule where we woke him up every 3 hours to feed. Now that his weight is fine, we don't need to triple feed anymore but I'm struggling with not having a schedule. I'm so worried that it's been 6 hours since his last feed and he's been sleeping for 4 hours. I want to wake him to feed him but I read lots of comments and posts about letting babies wake on their own. Please tell me what I should do. I should be sleeping while he's sleeping so well but I'm up worrying instead.

*Update*

He woke up 35 minutes later and was feeling totally fine. Didn't even cry during his diaper change. My MIL was the one who last fed him and put him to bed. She said he drank 210ml of milk so maybe that's why he was able to sleep that long. Phew! I knew I didn't have to worry but I did anyway... 😩
