    Other than that. It does all sound normal and you are doing a great job.

    Worse come to worse you could just become a vampire and join the baby in night time games lol.

    Hugs Hun newborns are hard work!

    is your house fairly dark during the day or is there quite a bit of light? i think for us the best thing was just making sure during the day was quite bright (DS still slept without any problems when little) & then making things darker during the evening (i.e. even if he was in the bassinet in the living room, we'd turn off lights & just have a lamp on). we tried to get out for some walks & also to just slightly adjust how we did things - so between day naps, i'd talk to DS, let him lie on a mat on the floor, not be quiet but at night time it would all be quiet & no talking & just a nappy change & feed, then back to sleep.

    i can't remember how long it took but DS seemed pretty good with the difference - although he still fed 2 hourly round the clock!
