#asktheexpert hi, my son is 5 months 11 days old, I had a question about his sleep pattern. he can clearly differentiate between night and day sleep, but at night he can sleep continuously only for 45 min before he gets disturbed and needs to suckle again to sleep. this continues through the night till he wakes at 6am. firstly is this a normal behaviour? how do I get him to sleep for a longer stretch, sometimes I feel he doesn't sleep well through the night and ends up taking longer daytime naps.
