Hi,
It is 9.45am and my almost 6 week old baby is still sleeping! She went to bed at 11.00pm, woke up at 2.30am. I think that was more for a diaper change than for a feed as she fed for only 5-7 minutes and fell back asleep. And now she has been sleeping from 3.0am to now. I managed to change her diaper again at 8.30am without waking her.
Is this too much sleep for a 6 week old? I never thought i would be worried about her sleeping too MUCH.. i was prepared for too LITTLE!
Do babies always wake up on their own when hungry or do some need to be prodded?
If this is normal i might switch to a nightime disposable diaper (we CD right now) so that she gets an undisturbed night sleep..
Anyone face a similar issue?
Thanks,
Rashmi
