A. Sleeping pattern of small babies vary from one child to another and if there is no discomfort or any other cause like infantile colic ,nasal blockage or any kind of pain and if the child is playful and taking proper feeding there is nothing to worry,have patience , this pattern will get normal with time.just keep monitoring your baby for comfortable position and temperature. every baby has its own sleeping pattern which keeps changing with age,only after 5-6 mons of age you can establish a regular sleep cycle gradually with time n age. too much of light and noise may interfere, avoid any excess screen time, fix a regular time, do not allow day time sleep which us not so necessary , massage the feety of the baby for a rgelaxed and undisturbed sleep. gentle rocking and patting of the baby, singing a lullaby, and light music will also play a good role. lesser the noise and better the sleep.a sound sleep of 8-10 hrs with a proper diet is sufficient for child's health.

A. See You give dinner milk to the child right before you put your child to sleep even if it is 10 PM or 10:30 PM give me it and then you put your child to sleep and see if that makes a difference because sometimes when kids are just have milk and go to sleep that really helps quite a lot to keep them or sleeping for a longer duration
