Answer
Newborns can be said to be indistinguishable between day and night, eating when they wake up and sleeping when they are full, until they gradually develop a routine around 4 to 5 months old. By 7 to 8 months, 80% of infants are awake during the day (with occasional naps), take a nap in the evening, and by the age of 1 reach the living routine of adults. During childhood, the secretion of growth hormone follows a pattern of more at night and less during the day, with growth hormone released between 1 am and 5 am being about three times that of the daytime.
