Dear parents,
All newborn babies wake up at 12midnight to 4am during this period they cry Andplay , feed &passes urine &stool frequently.
To change this routine wake the baby in day time thenafter week or so they changes the routine.

Normal sleep pattern for this age so no problem & not to worry. But if she is not getting up for feed for long, then gently wake her up by tickling on the sole to feed as all healthy babies at this age should be fed every 2&1/2 to 3&1/2 hrs,
