Hi ladies,
I found this site very late in my pregnancy and since then have been an avid reader but never posted b4.
I now have a 4 week old little girl, and motherhood is not a 'natural' thing for me, I do not know what to do with her during the day, after I have fed her she appears sleepy so I try to put her down in her moses basket but within a few minutes she is awake again and starts crying, so I give her a short while then will pick her up, she will then go sleepy so I try putting her down again but she will wake up again. Then even if she has been awake for most of the day we still are struggling to get her to sleep in the evenings, during the nite she is good, I can feed her and put her down and she will go back to sleep. Should she be sleeping during the day or not really, should I not be trying to put her down in her moses basket - should I be trying to do other stuff with her??? I am grateful for all your advice ladies. I no there are no rules, but I really dont know if i am even on the right track!!! Sorry. Btw I am BF every 3 hours which is going well.
