Baby not sleeping

2023-12-16 13:21:16
My baby use to sleep well earlier. From 4th week he hardly sleeps for 30-45 mins and wakes up and always need to be fed and then sleeps while feeding. If we keep him down he wakes up again. At night also he sleeps 30-1hr max. Visited doc they said its normal I am completely sleep deprived since 2 weeks. Is this normal in babies? I am worried he is not getting enough sleep

It is very normal in babies. Try feeding the baby properly increasing the amount of feed everytime.

First 3 months are difficult. But can be due to nasal blockage or colic problems
