Infant Sleep Trouble

Hello! 

I am a new mom struggling to get my little one to sleep during the day. She is 2 months old and barely gets any sleep during the day unless I rock and hold her to sleep. I tried swaddling and white noise but as soon as I lay her in the bassinet she wakes up. This has caused her to be overtired and be fussy majority of the day. She sleeps really well at night after her bath. This is the schedule she has been having for the past few weeks. After 9:30am she does not take naps so much. Any tips or suggestions would be so helpful! I literally can not do anything and she cries if we take her out or if she sees new faces assuming she gets overstimulated since shes already overtired. 

Bedtime Schedule:

7:30 Bath
8pm Feed
9pm Sleep
2:30am Feed
3:30am Asleep
6:30am Feed
7:30am Asleep
9:30am Wake

You could try baby wearing, maybe she just wants to be next to you a little longer. By the way, your sleep schedule at night is a dream, I wish my baby boy would sleep that good at night!

Try putting her down on her side. Rub her back and then roll her to her back. It made a major difference for my 1 month old. Also a bedtime routine with massage and a bath.
