Should I be concerned if my baby is extra sleepy?

While sleep patterns in infants can vary, a sudden, significant increase in sleepiness should be monitored closely. If your baby has no fever or other symptoms, they may simply be having a growth spurt or recovering from a mild, invisible bug. However, it is always best to keep a close eye on their hydration and general alertness, and when in doubt, consult your pediatrician to rule out any underlying health concerns.
