the sleeping pattern of the child changes from time to time and will improve with increasing age of the child. if the growth and weight gain of the child is proper along with proper urine stool  then there is no need to worry regarding the sleeping pattern. 
you have to just see that the child is not having any disturbance during the sleep because it can occur due to gas as well as due to digestion problem. also see for the comfort of the child and see the beddingx on which the child is sleeping.
try to prevent temperature variations around the child that is from hot to cold and cold to hot weather because that also can cause disturbance in the sleep.

Hello dear parent! It can be just because of some soothing feeling your baby is getting while sucking. Try to divert your child’s attention because in the long term this habit is not good for oral health. Consult your doctor for further guidance
