A. Hello good morning !! It's common in new born babies to take dream feed (feeding while sleep)and have disturbed sleep. No need to worry it is also considered as normal sleep. Continue to feed frequent feeds every two hours or on demand. Massage daily it helps in strengthening and relaxation of muscles gives sound sleep.
