    DS was asleep for pretty much 3 weeks straight. lol. at about 3 weeks, he woke up a lot more. he now has a screaming fit every day at about 11am. (i think its his arsenic hour) as he is perfect in the evening. he does grizzle a fair bit but that is getting less as he gets older.
    but in saying that he sleeps right through 12 hours with 1 wake up. so im happy!!

    We haven't even conceived #2 yet and I've already had these comments - from the MIL of course

    People are just stupid!!

    But I did want to add that every baby IS perfect - perfectly normal, they do all the things we expect, sleep, dont sleep, cry, feed, spew, get sick, smile, get wind, poo, coo, etc etc. If a perfect baby is described as one who is quiet, and is barely an interruption to our lives, then these people must have a pretend baby!!

    Like I have said, if I could change the word "perfect" in this thread, I would. I just wanted peoples experiences the first few weeks compared to weeks after. Unlike a great deal of others, I have no family here and ask many questions that obviously in this case could of been better articulated.
    This is one of them. Anyone know if I can change the title of this thread? and how?

    Why do you want to change it? You used the term perfect, and later defined it as 'happy, sleeping babies'. If that is what your question is about, and your definition, then stick to it. Changing the title isn't going to change if people agree with you or not or are striving for the same thing in a child.

    Maybe because then I wouldn't get so many responses based on the word "perfect" I was not being literal. I was looking for those to share their experiences. Thank you so much to those that did.
