Both mine did this. It's like they had had heaps of sleep and needed more comfort to drop off or in the case of ds he wanted to be up. At least at this up 'up' is only for an hour or so. I used to get up and watch tv until he was tired again, then rewrap more boob and he'd nod off. Then I would catch an hour before dd woke up.
Babies are very sleepy when they're born and they become less and less sleepy. I used to settle for about 20mins then get them up. 2 hours of settling is a recipe for frustration.
Just remember there are thousands of mothers all over the world getting up at odd times with an unsettled baby. You're not alone.
