Fighting sleep?

Question

My daughter is only 3 weeks old but seems to “ fight” her sleep already . Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to help her go to sleep ? She doesn’t like to be rocked or anything like that. I feel like she’s to little to fight her sleep.

Answer

ROUTINES, sleep deprivation is a thing. babies sleep, if you try making her sleep by keeping her up longer your making it worse.

Answer

You basically need to find what works for her (which is easier said than done). But, once you have it figured out, she should go down easily.
If they get over-tired they fight sleep.
Routines can help and figuring out what they like (swaddling, noise/no noise, rocking etc). Logging sleep patterns can also help you figure out when you need to start getting them ready for sleep.
So yeah, it’s totally normal to have sleep difficulties at 3 weeks but they don’t have to last!

Answer

Yeah my daughter never slept as much as a newborn. I kept reading about how they sleep sooo much as newborns. Not mine. She would sleep for like 20 mins and then be up for hours!!
