Eight week old baby sleeping routine

3 replies

My DD is eight weeks old and seems to constantly sleep during the day. She's very much still in the routine of feeding, sleeping, changing etc. She does have an awake period between around 10pm-1am every evening, but other than that she'll sleep until 8am and then have a feed and go back to sleep. Has anyone else experienced this? She was born at 37 weeks incase that is of any significance! Tia

Yes. DS2 seemed to be in the sleepy phase for about 12 weeks. He did become more awake and alert as those 12 weeks went on but he still spent most of the day sleeping at the 8 week mark.

The 4 month regression hit us. And now he never sleeps. Not saying this will happen to you (my first born never went through any regressions and was a good sleeper) but definitely enjoy it while it lasts.

I can’t remember what my dd was like at eight weeks exactly (she’s always been a poor sleeper) but agree her sleep went even more pear shaped during the four month regression so I wouldn’t worry too much until after that

Totally normal. Enjoy it.
