it's fine at this age
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 bedding 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.
POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. Sleeping in a cradle is generally safe for babies and is not likely to affect their health negatively if proper safety guidelines are followed. However, there are a few considerations to keep in mind:
1. **Safe Sleep Practices:** Ensure the cradle is safe and meets current safety standards. The mattress should be firm, and there should be no loose bedding or toys that could pose a suffocation risk.
2. **Transitioning:** As your baby grows, consider transitioning them to a crib or bed when they are developmentally ready. This can help them get used to different sleeping environments and reduce dependency on the cradle.
3. **Comfort and Safety:** Make sure the cradle is positioned safely and that the baby’s sleeping position follows guidelines, such as sleeping on their back.
4. **Variety in Sleep Environments:** Occasionally allowing your baby to nap in different safe sleep environments can help them adapt to various sleeping situations.
If you have specific concerns or notice any issues with your baby's sleep patterns or health, consulting with a pediatrician can provide personalized advice and reassurance.
