I am Co-Clinical Lead for Children and Young People’s Asthma, and am an advanced nurse practitioner working clinically in primary care and I work alongside Dr Sonal Kansra and Deborah Leese to implement the national asthma bundle of care for children and young people.

It is normal for babies under the age of 18 months old to wake up frequently throughout the night for various reasons:
• Hunger – needing regular feeds
• Hygiene – wet or soiled nappies
• Pain – teething, acid reflux, colic
• Developmental milestones – changing positions, rolling, sitting and standing
Babies are not born with a body clock so cannot tell the difference between day and night. Their body clock develops over time.
