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.
How long should your baby be awake? Newborn babies generally sleep a lot (according to Dr. Weissbluth newborns average between 11 â 18 hours of sleep per 24-hour period). However baby sleep is generally broken up into 7-8 ânapsâ varying in length from 15 minutes to 4-6 hours.
