My 2 Week Old! Posted: 02-18-06 17:52pm
How long should my two week old baby be
sleeping? - at the moment he only wakes
up for a feed and lasts about 5 mins
before falling asleep again - if this
normal and when will he start to stay
awake a little more?

Hi, and welcome! It very normal for new
babies to sleep all the time as long as
your baby is feeding well and putting on
weight then there should be nothing to
worry about!
They usually start waking for an hour or
so to 'play' at around 2mths (or mine did
anyway, but suppose it depends on
individual baby)
try not to worry and try to enjoy the nap
breaks while you still can lol!
