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 and sleep hours and it will obviously change from time to time and then stabilize. if overall the child is play full and is well rxesponding then do not worry about the hours of sleep and they will not have any problem. (please note if sleep is inadequate then growth will not be proper sxo if growth is proper then no need to worry about sleep)

A. Hello dear parent! Absolutely fine as long as your baby is feeding well the rest of the time. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby well on demand. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil
