Q.

From past one month my baby is drinking less milk and sleeping very less. Earlier he used to sleep 6 hours in day and whole night. He is now up all day. What can I do to get him drink milk and sleep ?

A. The first sleep regression often happens when your baby is about 4 months old, and others might occur in the future. Since it’s the first, the 4-month sleep regression is often the hardest for parents. Sleep regressions typically last anywhere from two to four weeks, and, while they are common, not every baby will have a sleep regression at this time.

A. hi, as babies grow their sleep and feeding patterns will change over period. so, please don't get panic about this matter. if your child looks happy healthy and active , gain enough weight , passes urine 7 or 8 times in a day then there is no need to worry about anything. To encourage your child to take feeds , Cuddle your child before you start to feed him/her. Try different feeding positions. Make eye contact or skin to skin contact while feeding your child.
