Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Zzz sleeping ?

My little guy was just 5 weeks on Friday. He can fight napping/cat naps unless I get him down in that window before he's overtired. Still working on reading his actual sleepy cues.

Usually he will give one 4-5 stretch of sleep at night and another 3-4 hours.

My question is napping and feeding during the day. I'm bf'ing and feed on demand and usually he's hungry between 2-3 hours unless he naps longer. Then he can push it to 4-5.

Naps can be 20 mins, 1 hour or 2-3 hours. All okay or should I be working towards more consistent windows of napping and when he eats during the day? I was really just trying to follow baby right now and not wake a sleeping baby during the day! Oh, and weight hain is good and diaper output. At night he can sleep :-)

  • Feed on demand and let him sleep when he's tired. In no way shape or form should you be trying to schedule your baby at this age.

    Agreed. He tells you what he needs, when he needs it and you give it to him.
