My 2 weeks old baby didn't wake up for his feed. Last feed was about 7 hours ago. Should I wake him up or should I let him sleep?

newborns should generally be given a feed every 2 hours. a newborn baby is still too young to do on demand feeding, and even if he or she is hungry, he may not always wake up to ask for a feed. so, it is important you wake up your baby every 2 hours and feed him, till the time he gains the perfect weight and is at least 2 months old, by when he will know how to ask for a feed when he needs it. https://www.breastfeedingbasics.com/articles/waking-a-sleepy-baby
