Sleeping too much?

Question

My 5 day old only wakes when I wake him to eat. Is this normal? I also have to keep juggling and tickling him to stay awake to eat.

Answer

We had to change our boy’s diaper and strip him down out of his pj’s in the beginning m! He’s going on four weeks now and he still doesn’t wake up and cry for feedings, but he does stay awake for them now.

Answer

Following because going through the same thing

Answer

🙋🏻‍♀️ same with my baby. Its hard getting him to feed for longer than about 15 mins as he keeps falling asleep but he does plenty of wet nappies so I assume he’s getting enough liquid.

Answer

Is he eating a lot? Breast fed or formula?

Answer

I don’t wake my baby to eat coz for me and from past experiences with my older kids baby wakes when they are hungry they automatically knows to wake that’s when I get up to feed them and my kids were always normal weight at the age they are

Answer

Same thing I’m going through

Answer

It’s normal. You should continue waking to feed until baby ya back up to birthweight and you get the all clear from your pediatrician. My girl is just starting to be awake more at 2 1/2 weeks.
