Why doesn't a 1-month-old baby sleep?

Sleep disruption in 1-month-old babies is very common and usually comes from:
- Hunger: A 1-month-old's stomach is very small and needs feeding every 2-3 hours.
- Gas colic: The digestive system is not yet mature; gas breaks up sleep.
- Not yet learned day-night difference: At this stage, babies are adapting to the night-day cycle.
- Over or under-stimulation: An overtired or under-stimulated baby has trouble sleeping.
- Growth spurts: The first growth spurt usually happens around 2-3 weeks; baby becomes fussier.
Keeping baby in a bright, active environment during the day and dim, quiet at night, burping before sleep, using a swaddle or sleep sack can help. A 1-month-old sleeping for 3-4 continuous hours even once is considered normal. If baby never sleeps, cries constantly, or weight gain is inadequate, consult your pediatrician.
