Dr. P.A. Khan   smartly been delivered a beautiful lecture with  full of details  on this title and asked the participants to  pledge and spread and educate to all General Public regarding this.

  On this occasion, some mothers questioned to Dr. that how Often should they Breastfeed? Dr. P. A. Khan answered them that "Newborn babies should breastfeed 8–12 times per day for about the first month. Breast milk is easily digested, so newborns are hungry often. Frequent feedings helps stimulate your milk production during the first few weeks.

  Dr. P A. Khan answered them without sufficient details that "By the time your baby is 1–2 months old, he or she probably will nurse 7–9 times a day. In the first few weeks of life, breastfeeding should be "on demand" (when your baby is hungry), which is about every 1-1/2 to 3 hours.

  Dr. P. A. Khan advised them " As newborns get older, they'll nurse less often, and may have a more predictable schedule. Some might feed every 90 minutes, whereas others might go 2–3 hours between feedings.New borns should not go more than about 4 hours without feeding, even overnight.
