....what your newborns were like??? I need your input!

Jess pretty much only wakes for her bottle, stays awake for like 10mins then cries or screams to be back asleep again......Is this normal?? I remember Isla loving her sleep, but this is crazy! Pretty much, if shes awake then shes either drinking or unhappy!!! I get about 10mins smiley time a day (normally just before bed).

i remember looking at danielle willing her to waken for some cuddle time so thinking she slept alot in the younger days ,,, then i remember the nights of me and OH snapping at each other cos she cried all evening !

sorry not much help

think i should have another to really refresh my memory lol ! x

aww paige was sleeping all of the time. she woke up for milk, and poos lol. she started to be more awake as the weeks went on thou.. but i think they stay sleepy untill about 3 months? x

yeah are babies not meant to sleep for like 20 hours a day ? x x

you should enjoy it while you can ! i think ava slept a lot until about 10 weeks x

Sounds normal to me hun. Hannah didn't realy have much awake time until after 4 weeks. It's weird how you forget though. I was the same as you thinking I'm sure Thomas was more awake than this?

Enjoy it hun, come the 4 month mark and she learns she can fight the sleep and then only do it if she is being held you will wish for that sleepy newborn back!

Izzy slept...all the time!

oh crumbs i've been trying to remember but its been a while for me, but sleeping alot seems right, normally when your wide awake lol

ben wakes for a feed and sleeps inbetween. when he is awake he just sorta lies or sits there watching the household go past him. x

Thanks ladies youve reassured me lots!!

I just got a bit worried.....she literally is asleep all the time, except for feeding, and if I dont get her back to sleep quick enough then she is one seriously unhappy baby! She does not like being awake
