just rub her ear and feed her around 30-45 min from one breast each feed every 2-4 hours.... sleeping while feeding is very natural in young babies...they usually takes 1-2 months to settle down but as mother we are responsible for their nutrition and growth hence feeding after every 4 hours is required....you should never force-feed but feeding should be there...mum knows best...see her cues, try understanding her patterns and manage her as per her😘

it happened with my baby also. try and feed her whenever she cries ...most probably she is hungry. tickling her foot and rubbing on the head helps...time every feed and try to feed as long as possible by waking her up <u>continuously</u>

agree witg neha, you have to feed every 2 hours. keep tickling under feet, chin or ear to wake baby up
