It is difficult for even parents to predict the sleep of baby. However certain things can be made so that baby gets sound sleep at night. As once the baby wakes up in the middle of night it is difficult to make the baby sleep especially if baby is having certain problems or issues.

Say for studying, the environment should be calm and quiet with bright light and if the question is sleeping, one must have environment in sync with it like there should be dim light, calm atmosphere and silence.

2. Diapering: One of the main reasons for breaking of the baby’s sleep is bed wetting. Make your baby sleep with diapers as they soak the liquid and keep the surface dry so that your baby is not disturbed in any way while sleeping.
3. Dream feeding:Dream feed is feeding given to the baby just before you go to bed and it helps prevent baby from waking up just after we moms finally fall to sleep. Dream feed can help your new born baby sleep for longer while you sleep.
4. Limit the naps during the day: It is hard to wake up the baby but making him/her sleep for long hours during the day will rob them off their night sleep. Like if baby sleeps past two hours just wake the baby and engage in some playful activity. Breaking such naps during the day will help your newborn baby sleep better at night. Sometimes if your baby is not well or tired then do not break the sleep as it might hinder the health.
