A. that's fine so. good sleep is important for overall brain development. To ensure sound sleep to baby make sure the room is dark and quiet and no disturbance . Baby should not be hungry at bed time and having comfortable bedding. also you can rock or swing baby or sing a lullaby or out soft music for the baby to be put to sleep .
