Just wondering how much your Lo sleeps?  With my older ds he was up  every 2-3 hrs at night and was up a lot during the day when he was this age.  Our little guy is always sleeping.  I mean rarely awake.  I have to wake him during the day to eat..  He was eating at 10pm and waking at 4am and then around 9am.  Now he sometimes wakes up sooner in between.  Im just worried.  The dr said its ok but still I feel like he is never awake.

DD usually wakes every 3-4 hours at night to eat, so we're up about 3 times a night.  Last night into today however, shes decided to eat every hour, so Ihope to gert some sleep toinght

 I know you probably want to kill me. But with my older ds it was the exact opposite.  Lo was in NICU for having a fever and his levels were high (jaundice) so he kept having to get blood taken.  Im just worried about him.  Pedi says hes fine though. I can't help it though.

DS sleeps for anywhere from 1-4 hrs (last night I had the first 4 hr stretch. was glorious!)

B sleeps in 3 hour stretches. Sometimes I have to wake her up to eat. That's just during the day. Pedi said we can let her wake herself up to eat at night. She'll go from about 9/10pm --> midnight/1am --> 4/5am --> 9/10am then we wake her up every 3 hours. ((**knock on wood**))

I had a fever during delivery, so B was in the NICU getting antibiotics during our hospital stay, too. She also had a pretty bad case of jaundice. Her levels were at 20. She lost a lot of weight, too. She's all better now.

I was nervous about her sleeping, too. If the doc says it's okay, I'm going with that.
