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.
Newborn babies sleep a lot. Expect your baby to be asleep for up to 18 hours out of every 24 in his first few weeks (ISIS 2013). But he wonât sleep for more than one hour to three hours at a time, day or night, as he will need frequent feeds (ISIS 2013, NSF nd). This means that you can expect some sleepless nights, especially at first.
