Ladies I need advice! Baby girl is a little over 24-hours old and all she wants to do is sleep. The nurse keeps saying…

Try to make her eat. I know they want to sleep but the longer she goes without eating, the more weight she'll lose. My first son lost 10oz in his first 3 days of life and he was tired. Had to take him back to the hospital.

The nurses are pushy when your at the hospital the baby is tired from making their entrance into the world so you don't have to wake the baby to feed them. The baby will let you know by crying that they are hungry

Undress her down to her diaper turn on the lights and play with her to wake her up is what my nurses said. @myreaofsunshine

Ok. Just want her to be healthy. I can't make her eat!

I always had to work to wake them. I felt mean, but I would change diaper, undress them to make them cold, tickle feet/back, just something to rile them up/make them mad

It's normal my son did the same he barely ate the first day
