My baby hasn't fed for hours

DS was last fed at 3.45. He's been asleep since about 8.

Should I wake him to feed? He's 10 weeks old and is gaining weight as he should

In this weather is be worried about dehydration.

Always chexkt the fontanelle to ensure its not shrunken in, especially as he had a long time without fluids.

Make sure he's not over covered so he can lose heat.

@TruthOnTrial I will check that now. He is in a sleepsuit (no vest underneath) and covered with a thin blanket
