Hello,
I have a 12 day old baby who is now starting to become more alert. After each feed lately, roughly every 3 hours she is awake and I give him a bit of tummy time and a cuddle then he yawns a few times and I put him in a wrap and down in his cot. He now just lies there awake for up to 2 hours for the next feed. He doesn't cry but just lies awake. I presume if he isn't crying he isn't unhappy but just wondered if perhaps I should be trying to keep him awake longer before settling? I just don't want to over stimulate him? I don't want him to get use to falling alseep in my arms! First time mum so probably just over paranoid!!
