Sleep pattern of baby

Question

Asked for Female, 31 Years

How long should a 5 months old baby sleep? My little one sleeps very less during day n night. Even during night after being fully fed along with massage etc she keeps waking up every hour and after feeding for one two minutes she sleeps again n wakes up again after some time. This gets very frustrating for us . What can we do ? Also tell when babies start sleeping without night feeds?
