It's natural for babies to keep awake at night if they sleep more in the day or if they sleep late in the evening.
If you keep her active during the day she will sleep at night. Don't worry about her growth and health. There's no connection.

kindly take care of food the child is consuming just before going to sleep. It is possible that it is causing digestion problem leading to more amount of gas formation which might be disturbing sleep of the child. Also see for other environmental factors like temperature variations which might be affecting the sleep of the child. Indulge the child in physical activity during the day and give plenty of water to drink which might help in the cause
