What is/was your baby doing around 4 weeks?

[Spring Angel]

I totally understand how you feel, I was convinced that my DS thought I was the most boring person on the planet. What I did was commentate on everything I was doing. So it might sound silly but say if I was making a sandwich I'd say 'so first we get the bread and then we spread the butter etc etc' I'd do this for everything like if I was doing the laundry, changing his nappy. I'd also just sing (very badly) silly songs usually I'd just make them up. I try to have at least one bit of tummy time and some naked time a day and I think a trip outside for a walk really breaks up the day.

Trust me, all they are interested at 4 weeks is the sound of your voice, silly faces you make and generally just taking in the world. Don't stress if she is sleeping heaps, she is growing heaps at the moment and I think at that age they can sleep from 16hours to 20 hours a day.

It does get easier and they get more interactive really quickly.

First you are doing a great job!!

If your bub doesn't want to sleep anymore she will soon let you know.
Babies have a 2 4 and 6 week growth spurt so it's normal to do heaps of eating and sleeping

I'm not a big chatty person either, but as your bub shows more signs of not wanting to sleep all the time and you have to start occupying her more you will soon get the hang of it.

Remember you have only been a mum for the same amount of time she has been a baby. You are both learning together.
