Is it normal?

Savannah i 6wks old today and she is still spending most of the day sleeping. Is this normal? I've heard of other babies her age being awake most of the day.

normal i would say! all babies are different. my ali sleeps loads all day and then sleeps all night too! he is really bright and alert when he is awake and feeds well. if he wasn't like that i would worry.......as long as Savannah is feeding and alert when awake i would say there is no problem (just get some snooze yourself then hun!!!).

oh totally normal! I didn't feed Alasdair enough (I didn't do it on purpose) when he was first born and he was awake a lot (not necessarily crying) then suddenly when he started getting enough he'd feed, sleep, feed, sleep. It was amazing! It'll probably change quite soon but when she's having growth spurts she'll still sleep a lot. Alasdair has days/weeks where all he does is feed and sleep still!

I would say its normal.... enjoy the time

Rihanna spends most days awake and then has a few days were she just sleeps loads.... All bambino's are different hun x

Some are sleepy and some (like my Lola) don't need much sleep.She now sleeps about 12 hours a day and is perfectly happy with that.

Don't worry,as long as she's happy about it enjoy some nice 'me' time.

Thanks girls! Savannah is quite alert when she's awake, and is waking every 2 hrs during the day to feed so I guess I just have some good boob juice that makes her sleepy.

Nothing to worry about perfectly normal

I would say it was definitely normal to sleep nearly all the time at that age
