advice please - too much sleep?

[louise2710]

This is probable a stupid q but im a tad worried. My 5 week old has slept loads more than normal today. Hasnt had that much awake time and when he does he just wants fed then falls back asleep. Is it normal for them to have days like this? Were doing a rough EASY routine which would normally have awake time in between eating and sleeping but hes only awake when im changing him (when he has screamed).

He wasnt awake any more than normal through the night easier so cant explain it.

My LO basically sleeps and eats lol so I would say it's normal

It could just be a growth spurt. Is he eating the same amount as normal and producing enough dirty nappies?

hes eating a bit more regularly. Has had one dirty nappy today but a few wet ones. He doesnt seem ill to me but im still getting myself worried. Lol-Im stupid arent I?

Vinnie did this on Monday and still slept through the night. I think it could be the 6 week growth spurt, some babies wake more some sleep more. Vinnie made up for it Tuesday though by staying awake all day lol xx

Sounds like a growth spurt hun, my LO sleeps his way through them

Ah good! I did think it could poss be a growth spurt, but when he had one at 2ish weeks he didnt sleep more, just ate non stop, so i wasnt sure. Thanks a million, youve put my mind at rest! xx
