FTM paranoia here. How much does your 6 week old sleep? Today she won’t eat a full bottle of milk in one sitting. She’ll have 2 instead of 3.5, and she’ll fall asleep immediately after. She’s usually awake for at least 45 minutes at a time and she hasn’t been today. My brother baby sat today and said the same thing. She’s eating every 2 hours or so so she’s eating a little more frequently, and she doesn’t have a fever. I’m gonna call her doctor if she’s still not eating a lot in one sitting and falling asleep instead of finishing the bottle. But I’m just a little paranoid that something’s wrong. I thought she was supposed to start being awake more and more but she’s been sleeping for long at a time the last couple of days. Is that something I should be worried about?
growth spurt my 6 week old is doing the same sleeping a lot eating more regular but not finishing the bottle every time x
Might be a growth spurt where they sleep more… i wouldn’t worry about it yet honestly… have you started purees yet? Might be beneficial to her food intake and it takes longer to digest. Could help her stay stay full longer and more active during wake hours.
Sometimes they will do this, eat less and sleep more whenever they are having a growth spurt. As long as this is the only thing you have noticed out of the ordinary. They are growing and learning so much during the first couple years it is very common.
6month old should be awake majority of the day
Randy Fleming Wells she’s 6months not 6 weeks
At 6 weeks your baby should be sleeping most of the time. I wouldnt worry about it. My son at that age ate 2oz every 2 hours. Seems normal to me
The baby is 6 weeks old should not be eating purees you idiot., it came be normal though she still really young though , just as long as she is eating I wouldn’t be to concerned
