Doc, totoo po ba yung bawal patulugin si baby pagkatapos kumain? How long after eating solids can baby sleep? Ano po ba mangyayari if biglang nakatulog kasi yung baby ko po inaantok after mag lunch eh. Thank u po!

Depending on the age of the baby and timing of the feeding, usually, 2 hours after feeding po is recommended before nap time. At this stage of their life, it is important to have a distinction between mealtime and bed time. Just like adults, it is also important to note that carbohydrates and sugar is also being processed from the milk, and this may affect your baby’s quality of sleep. You’re welcome po :)
