7 week old stopped napping

My DS is 7 weeks old. Over the last four days he isn’t napping much at all during the day. He used to sleep a lot during the day, with lots of naps all lasting between 45 mins and 2.5 hours. Today he has only had 3 naps and has woken up by 45 minutes, other times he dozed off but woke up after a couple of mins. The few days have been similar. Nothing has changed since before, he will fall asleep on the breast and after a few mins I’ll put him down in his Moses basket downstairs. This seems to have coincided with him suddenly cluster feeding throughout the day whereas before his feeds had become more regular with about 3 hours in between. His nighttime sleep hasn’t changed, two feeds in the night. Is this just a phase that might change again in a few days? I know he’s still very young so things will be changeable but surely he needs more sleep in the day than this!
