Is my 6 week old sleeping too much?

Question

My 6 week old son was never much of a day mapper no matter how hard I tried and wakes every 1.5-2 hours at night. Yesterday he napped quite a bit, slept in 3-4 hour stretches last night and has been napping already this morning!! Is my life getting better or should I be concerned??

Answer

My baby girl is the same age and the same way :) some days she seems more alert and other days she sleeps all day long. Sleep helps them achieve new developmental and physical goals. As long as your little one is pooping and peeing enough, no showing sick symptoms, and is content during awake periods I would try not to be concerned.

Answer

Nothing to be concerned about.  They are little and need a lot of sleep. My 10 week old sleeps a lot too. She wakes up in the morning and plays for an hour and then is tired so she goes back to sleep. She has 3 to 4 naps a day. I let her sleep as much as she needs.
