it sounds like you have a perfectly normal, well adapted human baby. Remember, 2 weeks ago she was in your uterus, always fed, always held by you, never alone. She could always here your heartbeat, breathing, voice. Who knows what it's like to be born, but I bet it's a bit of a shock! Often babies are fairly mellow for the first 10 days-2 weeks after the birth, probably getting over the birth, drugs you may have had in labour, jaundice etc. But, then they wake up and become demanding. This is a good thing! These are the babies who will demand to be feb and grow and thrive!
You are a great mum to your other little one - this is the lesson. sometimes the needs of another are greater than your own needs, and sometimes you have to share. Sometimes you have to wait. It does him no harm to learn this.
