Hiya,

My 4 week DS is suddenly awake from about 6pm till late in the evening. Is this normal? I'm worried he's not getting enough sleep.

Thanks.

My dd is 6 weeks and she did similar around 4 weeks. She now naps in the morning and afternoon but is wide awake for the rest of the day, she sleeps about 10/11-6 now (with feeds but settles quickly) so you may be on track for longer nights

Babie are random little things smile

Go with the flow at this age.

I have the same problem with my 6 wk old. Only sleeps 9 to 11 hours in 24. Most annoying and very draining...sorry no advice to give. Just trying to get through as best I can with help from hubby and family.
