Babies: 0 - 3 Months

i thought his sleep would be getting better...

not worse!

for the past week almost, DS has not slept at ALL!  he falls asleep fine, but only stays that way for 10-15 minutes after we put him down.  when he cries, literally all you have to do is put your hand on him and he falls right back asleep, only to awake crying 15 minutes later.  this cycle repeated from 10 till 2 AM when he finally fell asleep for 2hours after i fed him for the 3rd time during that time period.

i dont know what is going on, this has never been a problem before :(  it stresses me out so much cause i go back to work in a few weeks and if this continues i dont know what i am going to do to function - i am a resident, and work 13+hour days 6 days a week...that will not work on almost no sleep!

anyone else's LO have horrible sleep patterns around 6-7 weeks?

  • We definately had problems around that time.  For us it got better though.  For instance two nights ago we put DS down at 8:30pm and he woke at 3am, ate, and went right back down until 7:15am.
