A. Hello! Growth spurts and milestones can interrupt or disturb your child sleep temporarily. Sometimes it can be due to separation anxiety, which is a very common finding at this particular stage and age of the baby. Establish a consistent routine. Slowly, but gradually separate feeding from sleeping. Consulting your paediatrician can help rule out any medical issues and provide tailored guidance.
