A. Sleep Cycle in smaller babies is veryy different and they have a certain pattern initially which becomes regularize at around 6 to 8 months ogf age and if the baby is comfortable with no irritability because of infantile colic nasal blockage any regurgitation etc you should not worry just give a comfortable position to the baby and no medicine is required.

A. Hello dear parent! As long as your baby is active and normal, passing adequate urine, accepting feeds well then nothing to worry. Baby’s sleeping and feeding pattern keeps changing. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby well on demand. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil for skin warmth.
