Patient's question:
My daughter is seven and a half months old. She usually goes to sleep around 10 p.m. She has one feeding in the middle (between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m., at irregular times, and she cries when she wakes up). She wakes up around 7 a.m. During the day, she usually naps around 10 a.m. and around 2 p.m., each time for about half an hour.What kind of assistance I would like: I've been thinking about it for a few times—my daughter isn't sleeping much, is she? How many hours of sleep should a baby her age get each day? If she's not sleeping enough, are there any good methods to help her sleep longer? Thank you.
Doctor's answer:
I speculate that the reason for your situation might be as follows. Your child's sleep time is normal, and there's no need to make them sleep excessively; it's enough as long as they are energetic. For this kind of situation, the following points should be noted. Recommendations: 1. The child is fine; under normal circumstances, it's about 10 hours. 2. Maintain a good dietary structure. If you have any concerns, you can focus on digestion and speaking.
