I'm concerned my daughter sleeps too much. She's normally up between 6:30-7:30 and is up mostly all morning she does occasionally nap (car ride, stroller ride) but never more than an hour. Every afternoon she sleeps for about 3 hours then I wake her up at 5 to be up for the evening and to interact with Dad. During the night she sleeps 3-4 hour stretches. Is this normal?
@dropdeadmeg, whenever she's awake I talk, sing, and ply with her. I explain ever were doing like feeding, changing diapers, bathing, etc. she's not in to toys yet either so I just try and play with her. Hope that helps
I feel dumb asking this, but how do you interact with your baby? I try talking to my boy but I never know what to say or do. I bring out a baby toy but he doesn't seem interested at barely 2 1/2 weeks old. just trying to figure out how to entertain him more.
Thank you @myliltadpole1116 @maggie1129 I'm happy to know its normal 😊 and yes in a few weeks I will be begging for my sleepy baby 😂
@nadiahuynh, very normal all newborns sleep a lot!! Once they get a little older u will be begging for them to sleep like right now my daughter won't sleep that much I have to sleep with her
On average babies sleep 16 hrs a day and if your interacting a lot, that means she learning a lot and that tires them out easily. As long as they gain weight your doing just fine:)
no problem! I remember being soooo bored when she slept, but now nap time is very few and far in between. 😩😂😂😂
@their.bomb.ass.mom, thank you so much!! Ok I'm relieved she eats and is gaining weight. I do interact with her as much as possible while she is awake but before I know it nap time starts.
All babies are different my daughter wakes up once a night but she is awake more during the day for long stretches of time but she might be going through a grow spurt they usually sleep more when it happens
for the first three months of my daughters life she slept, a lot. my doctor said it was really normal, as long as they're eating and gaining weight just fine, the excessive sleeping is normal.

Her helmet she got so she can be safe (as she told me) when she rides her bike and scooter lol

She ignored me the whole ride should have went to sleep when I asked u to 😂😂😂
When will baby sleep through the night? My daughter is almost 3 months and she is still waking up every 3 hours. 😩😴
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!
In floods of tears!! 😭 Daisy just won't sleep!!! Since about 4am she has been so unsettled! I've had maybe about 3 or 4 hours sleep! I've given up now...
@nadiahuynh, thank you! :)
