D Abram's asked about pediatricians and sleep questions. Most pediatricians do ask about sleeping during routine exams. This is usually, as Ms Abrams suggested, to find out if there are any issues regarding sleep that the parents are concerned about. It is also an opportunity to reinforce what is normal, i.e., that a 2 month old should be waking to feed at night despite misadvice that the parents might have been given from neighbors, etc.
