LO milk intake

Hi Mummies, is it better to feed on demand or make LO finish the recommended amount for her weight per feed - which can take up to 1-1.5hrs? Currently feeding on demand but the milk intake a day is only 500ml when the recommended milk intake is 700ml. Also, should I be waking baby up for a feed when LO is sleeping? LO can sleep up to 6hrs at a stretch. But we tried this and LO only drunk 60ml and went back to sleep again. LO is experiencing slow weight gain, so quite concern about her milk intake. Sigh. #pleasehelp

feed by demand, did not wake baby up for milk as sleep is important for baby growth. Never follow recommended intake, feeding schedule etc as every baby is different. if you have concern, do check with PD during follow up
