Patient's question:
My face has been glowing for a while now. Recently, I've been crying a lot on social media, only sleeping for 6 hours or so at a time. I don't know why I'm so emotional.Doctor's answer:
Every baby is different. Generally, a 5-month-old baby sleeps for about 15 hours a day. You need to observe the baby's alertness and activity levels during the day. If the baby is alert, playful, and active after waking up, it indicates that they have had enough sleep for the day. There is no fixed time; only the baby's own rhythm matters.For infants aged 4 to 6 months, daily sleep time should be ensured to be around 14 hours. However, the sleep pattern for an infant's daily routine should be determined by their sleep condition. It is foolish to wake up a baby who is sound asleep and to introduce weaning foods at that time. Forcing changes to an infant's sleep pattern—a fundamental biological rhythm—is against natural laws.
