My son is 2 weeks today and has been extremely tired and less than interested in eating. He has had his normal about of wet/dirty diapers, but getting him to eat has been a chore today. He'd rather sleep.
Anyone else have this happen around this time? Trying to decide if its normal or if I should call the pediatrician.
We have a super sleepy baby in general. He has been that way since birth though. Newborns tend to be very sleepy. I think anytime there is a change in behavior that concerns you, then it might be worth it to put in a call to the pedi though. They have probably heard it all! I'd rather call than be sorry I didn't later on.
I've been dealing with this since birth... DS has only had 2 or 3 really good feedings the rest were really lazy and he is 2 days old. He lost 4 oz in the first 24 hours. Naturally this has me overly concerned, on top of being exhausted, and hormones are leaving me a snotty teary mess...
