Bubonic Plague is the most common naturally-occurring form of plague and is caused by the bite of an infected flea. A sore usually forms at the site of the bite. Plague bacteria enter the skin and travel to the nearest lymph node (gland), usually in the groin, underarm, or neck.
How Long Will My Newborn Sleep? A newborn may sleep up to 18 hours a day, waking every couple of hours to feed. Breastfed babies feed often, about 8 to 12 times a day. Bottle-fed babies tend to feed less often, about every 3 to 4 hours or so. Because the need for food is stronger than the need for sleep at this age, babies who sleep for longer stretches should be awakened to feed.
First, the bad news: newborns eat and sleep on 3-4 hour cycles. By the age of three months, however, newborns can hold enough food to sleep for longer, perhaps 5-6 hours at a stretch. The key is to make sure everythingâs just right at bedtime, and that your babyâs eaten until full and content. When your baby goes to bed for the night, you go to bed!
