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.
It's only when they can last for six to eight hours without a night feed that they start 'sleeping through the night'. In the first weeks of life, babies sleep for an average of 16 to 18 hours a day. A newborn will usually sleep for two to four hours at a time, wake up for a feed and short play and then drop off again.In the early days, your baby may doze off constantly without a peep (unless she has colic).n the first weeks of life, babies sleep for an average of 16 to 18 hours a day.
