Is it normal for my 6 week old daughter to be more awake than sleeping during the day? It's been so rough on me. She only takes a morning, afternoon, and evening nap. They only last about an hour.

Yes. Growth spurt. All babies are different. She wants to play lol

Yep. their naps will eventually become shorter and spaced.

@kbrown91, @andrewsmommy She's so fussy during her awake hours though. She will go 2-3 hours before finally going to sleep and that's me trying everything that I know to do to get her to sleep.

Have you tried gas drops? there's a growth spurt at 6 weeks, and it can make them sleep more/stay awake more. also can make them super fussy or calm.

@kbrown91, Yes I've tried gas drops and grope water!

it's probably just the growth spurt then. @haleymclain1121

my son started that at 6 weeks and now at 8 I've finally figured out his nap times.. do you have a swing? my son takes 3 naps a day and still goes down perfectly from 8 to 9 for bedtime. I just learned I have to put him in it literally at the first sign of him getting tired or else I miss that window and the whole day is messed up lol
and I have to make it dark

@amber188, I have a swing, but she won't sleep in it. I've tried putting her down in her drowsy state but it wakes her up. She won't sleep unless I'm holding her. It use to be so easy, but now she's constantly fighting sleep.
