A. Let ur baby to sleep with any of his /her comfortable position. It may be supine, lateral, prone (on tummy) legs up, No need to worry for that positions. Don't change baby's position forcefully if Baby is sleeping comfortably with any position. Feed as per baby's demand only. Exclusive breast feed ur baby till 6months of age Keep a watch on urine output Baby should pass minimum urine 6-8 times per day.

A. Idli it should not be a correct position to sleep for a prolonged hours because the baby is too young to manage his breathing process... Hans please make sure the baby doesn't lie upside down...
