A. Sleeping pattern in children may be variable in different age group so if the baby is active and taking proper feeding with no other complaints most of the time there is nothing to worry. You have to just see the child should not be uncomfortable which may be because of factors like temperature of the room nasal blockage some discomfort like infantile colic or hunger. In older children a proper discipline is required so that the sleeping pattern can be scheduled according to a prroper time try to avoid too much of screen time with sometimes can be the causative factor for dixsturbed sleep.

A. hi you need to keep your child awake at feeding time so he or she can take feed enough. for that , gently tickle your child palm and sole while feeding or you can blow air from mouth on your child forehead while feeding. or gently rub your fingertips on your child hair. try different feeding positions.
