My dd is 20 days old and also doesn't really sleep during the day! She doesn't want to miss what's going on. She only sleeps if I take her out somewhere - she screams in the car seat on the way there and back, but will sleep while out. I therefore cannot sleep while she does!
I am exhausted.
Night times her feed sleep cycle is 1 1/2 to 2 hours, but as it takes an hour to feed, and then she needs to settle, I get maximum 1 hour stretches to sleep, and that is rare - normally 30mins.
I am starting to resent her which is awful. Any advice anyone before I crack?
