newborn nighttime sleep?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Newborn sleep at night is irregular — this is completely normal. For the first 2-3 months, babies can't distinguish night from day; they wake and feed every 2-4 hours. On average, a newborn wakes 2-4 times during the night, staying awake for 20-40 minutes at each waking.

To help establish sleep patterns: keep the room bright and active during the day, but keep nighttime feedings dim, quiet, and calm. By 2 months, day-night awareness starts to develop gradually. Night wakings can remain frequent through 4-6 months — this is a natural part of development, not something to worry about.
