Newborn sleep patterns....or lack there of

Tiffany

I read that newborn babies sleep about 16-17 a day? And that they don't really stay awake more than an hour? My girl is constantly awake! She stays awake for hours on end....just sitting contently in my arms usually....she will cry if I put her down before she's in a deep sleep. She eats every 2 hours usually 3oz....sometimes more....even during the night.

She's 3 weeks today. There's no way she sleeping 16-17 hours a day....lol anyone else?!
