Janani ViswanathanMom of 2 children4 years agoA. For his age he will need around 15 hrs of sleep per day split up into naps and night sleep. Try to find out why the child is not sleeping properly. Is it due to external noise? Then try following this. Start playing a mild and soothing music or lullaby during her sleep times. Put the same song every time. After she gets used to it change the songs. By practicing this she will get used to sleep with outside noise. If it is due to frequent peeing and wetting if clothes try using diapers or cloth diapers which will help to keep her dry and ensure a deep sleep for long hours.Or is it due to hunger? Your baby should be peeing anywhere between six to ten times a day which means the baby is taking feeds properly. If not then make sure the baby is latching and taking feeds well or if ur milk supply is sufficient. Also there should be a gradual weight gain. Keep a check on these factors.
