Q.

Should babies have any sleep schedule? For how much time should a 2 week old baby sleep? Mine sleeps by 10pm wakes up by 1 and then after 1.5-2 hr for feeds. And finally wakes up by 5-6 am? Is this normal? How can we increase the sleep time?

A. And what abt day naps, she sleeps only when i hold her. If i lay her down, her nap will last for 10-15 min. But if i continue to hold her, she will sleep for 1-2 hour.

A. hi newborns don't have sleep or feeding schedule.. they can not differentiate between day and night. so, don't worry it is common problem among them. all babies are different and so they have their own Sleeping and feeding patterns so, please don't compare your child with others. please don't get panic ,if your child looks happy healthy and active,gains enough weight then no need to worry about anything.. keep Breastfeeding your child as per his or her needs. maintain good hygiene.
