During the Middle Ages, bubonic plague was known as the Black Death.. During that time many people became sick and died of pneumonia when the bubonic plague bacteria infected the lungs, called the pneumonic plague which saw the spread of the disease bacteria through coughing and sneezing.
From experience with my own kids as well as asking some other moms and doing some research on popular baby websites, it seems to be the average time a baby sleeps in their bassinet is approximately 3 months or around 9 weeks â 13 weeks.
Newborn babies sleep a lot. Expect your baby to be asleep for up to 18 hours over the course of 24 hours in his first few weeks. But he won't sleep for more than three hours or four hours at a time, day or night (Davis et al 2004) .ll this should help your baby to start to understand that night-time is for sleeping (Sleep 2003) . Give him a chance to fall asleep on his own. When your baby's between six weeks and eight weeks old, you can teach him how to fall asleep on his own. Put him down when he's sleepy, but still awake.
