Mom of a 4 yr 2 m old boy3 years ago

Q.

Hi. my baby girl is two years old. Two things: 1. She sleeps two little. 4 hours a day, only in lap. I have heard babies sleep for too long. 2. She wakes in 5-10 minutes after she sleeps with a shock. As if she startled or something? Is it common, or something to worry about.

A. sleep will be taken according to the need of the child so if the growth of the child is proper do not worry much about the sleeping pattern it will obviously change from time to time and then stabilize if the growth is proper no need to worry

A. Hello dear parent! Communicate more with your child. Observe what is triggering such behaviour in your child and try as much to avoid the triggers. It is advisable for you to consult your child’s doctor for further advice. Clarify all your concerns about this and follow your doctor’s instructions diligently. Good luck and take care.
