Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi, I'am Dr Suresh K Yadav MD (paediatrics), I had gone through your question and understand your concerns,

Sweating during can sleeping and breast feeding can be normal if there is no respiratory distress , but if sweating only on breast feeding and associated with respiratory distress , any heart problem needs to be ruled out. If weight of your baby is normal (10-11 kg ) , I do not think it is related to something serious.
Some babies naturally sweat more and it may one of those types.


Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions

Take care.
