While holding my baby she jumped up in her sleep and woke up is that normal?

Sounds fine: Babies can wake up suddenly or gradually or any way in between. It's not a sign of anything special. If there are symptoms (other new issues or behaviors), parents can check with the baby's primary care doctor.
