A. it s ok. Sleep is important for brain growth and development. For a good sleep baby should be well fed at bed time. Room should be comfortable and quiet. You can sing a lullaby or play some light music. Can use swinging or rocking also. Day night variations are quite common in babies and can be corrected by sleep training as per family schedule
