A member asked:
Would the a 2 month old baby appetite increase during the day if he is starting to sleep through the night?

Generally yes: A baby will need a constantly increase in calories so if he's sleeping more at night , he will feed more during the day. Enjoy the night's rest and follow his growth with his doctor

Feeding clock: Just like you, a baby has a feeding clock that driver their feeding pattern.If they have learned to consume more during the day they can drop the night feed.As long as baby continues to grow normally I would let it happen.
