Mom of a 4 yr 9 m old boy4 years ago
Q.

#asktheexpert Hi doctor, my baby is 4.5 months. His sleep seems to have reduced so much. He sleeps for maximum of 9 hours in the night and a maximum of 2 hours in the day time. Sometimes he sleeps only for 6 hours in the night and 1 hour in the day time. Is this normal?

A. sleeping pattern in small children less than 6 months of age is very different and also will change from time to time and with increasing age sleeping is different in different babies and it the growth of the child is proper do not worry much about the sleeping pattern but it will always improve with increasing age of the child and you have to just take care of any environmental factor which might be disturbing the sleep
