  • Some days or even weeks can be totally different with the baby skipping snack time or nap time or a totally different routine when sick. These changes are perfectly fine.
  • Sometimes, it could mean that your baby has started a different set of routine. So, Kindly take note of it and follow that routine accordingly. Good Luck ! 🙂
