2.5 week old, awake time?

[spottydolphin]

so, i ought to know this what with him being my 4th baby, but never mind :-/
ds4 is 2.5 weeks old and if he's awake he cries. cries or feeds. but he is never awake and content.

is that normal? i had one overly content baby (who turned out to be autistic), one very, very unhappy baby (who turned out to have multiple food intolerances) and one who must've been in between the 2 but I can't really remember because I had a newborn and 2 pre-schoolers at the time haha

i'm finding all this feeding and crying incredibly tiring though... remind me that it gets better!

my ds was the same (second child so not new to it All ) turned out he had silent reflux, diagnosed at 7 weeks after having 7 weeks of constant screaming .

mug happier baby now (14 weeks)

Much not mug

When mine was that age he wasn't awake much, but when he was awake he would only cry if he was struggling with poo/ wind. The rest of the time he was content.
But he might have been particularly easy as I don't know if that's normal or not.
