A member asked:
How many hours should a 6 months baby sleep straight in total at night?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable: Normally most if not all of the night. If he/she awakens "for a bottle" it might well become a habit. If it is because of "colic" it may relate to diet e.g. Cow's milk or vitamin deficiency.
