Am a mum for 2nd time, so feel very lucky. With my first DD she was always awake and a terrible crying baby, but this time DD2 is a dream to look after.
My DH and I were told by midwife to wake her every 4 hours maximum for a feed. DD2 is now 2 weeks old and sometimes wants to sleep longer and we have trouble waking her to get her to feed.
What happened to the term 'never wake a sleeping baby?' really confused as to what to do now. Can I leavve DD2 to wake up by herself for a feed?
