A. She is already 1 year old, so crossed six months. routine was set while it seems to be changing and only 1 time sleep.

A. Sleep pattern of small babies is very different and if the child is not having any discomfort or any cause like infantile colic ,nasal blockage or any kind of pain and if the child is playful and taking proper feeding so this pattern will get normal with time.just keep monitoring your baby for comfortable position and temperature. every baby has its own sleeping pattern ,only after 6 mons of age you can set a regular sleep cycle gradually with time n age. too much of light and noise may interfere, avoid any excess screen time, fix a regular time, do not allow day time sleep , massage the feet of the baby for a relaxed and undisturbed sleep. gentLwgle rocking and patting of the baby, singing a lullaby, and light music will also play a good role. lesser the noise and better the sleep.
