Asleep all day

my 8 week old have wanted to sleep all day. She normally sleeps quite a lot but not as much as today. She doesn't seem unwell, is not hot and is still eating, albeit more frequently and less in volume. Wet nappies ok.

Is this alright? Anyone had anything similar?

At 8 weeks, babies sleep for about 20- 22 hours a day, so I'm sure she's OK. At that age, I'd be more worried if she wasn't sleeping, rather than sleeping too much

They do sleep a lot, agreed, but today very different to her usual day, with almost no awake times. Normally she stays awake fir an hour to an hour and a half after feeds.

Has she just had jabs? DS slept for 2 days after them (woke up, ate, slept more). Or she might have a bug and be tired because her system's fighting it. Or a growth spurt. Or just be messing with you and planing to be awake all night Wink
