Hey guys,

My little one is 2 and a half weeks old - I have just been reading the CLB book which I shouldn't do as it freaks me out. I need to throw it away.

Anyway, my little one has developed a bit of a pattern of having a 3 hour sleep from around 10am-1pm - she wakes and cluster feeds from 1pm-3pm, another couple of hours sleep from 3pm-5pm, and then she wakes up quite cranky and cluster feeds again and then doesn't go to sleep until around 10pm - despite having a nice bath and calm time. She then does sleep until around 3-4am waking for a feed and then sleeps until around 6am.

Does this all sound normal for a baby of this age? She loves to use the boobie as a dummy and to a point I don't mind this - except at the night time feed. I have actually introduced a formula feed at 10pm as we find this helps her to get over to sleep better than being on the breast for an hour. I express my milk so that we don't affect my supply.

Just want to know that we are on the right track with things and that she is doing ok.
Thanks so much
