One month old not sleeping

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months
DD's sleep has been off for about the past 3 days.  She has barely been sleeping at all during the day.  She used to always take at least a good 3 hour nap in the afternoon and then nap again in the evening and lately she has been only sleeping a few minutes here and there during the day.  DH and I would get excited and think she's going to sleep great at night and she still will only sleep for a 3-5 hour stretch and then it will take us a couple hours to get her back to sleep.  And then she will sleep for only small periods of time.  Any ideas?

    My suggestion: She's only 4 weeks old, thats what babies do. Roll with the punches.

    Actually you will find the more sleep babies get during the day the better their sleep is at night, but a 3-5 hour stretch is great for her age. I agree with the PP roll with the punches she is still very young and that is just how babies sleep.

    This sounds familiar.  She will eat and want to stay up for 2-3 hours at night before going back to sleep.  Then its time to feed again since she eats every 3-4 hours.  Thats the most we get.  Good Luck

    our sleep patterns never got "regular" (if you can call it that) until DS was around 3 months old -- just hang in there with it -- it will get better!
