Hi there. I'm new to the forum so I'm not sure if this has already been discussed. My 3 month old baby had just all of a sudden started sleeping for long stretches during the day. His night sleep has remained the same but he is now sleeping longer during the day so is down to four feeds. Does anyone know if this is a normal change at this age?
Hi Angie! Sounds normal and as long as the night time sleeping is ok, I'd say your little bubba is probably having a growth spurt and is a little more tired during the day. The sleep times/lengths change constantly in the first year. Our DS went from 3 day sleeps of 40 mins, to 2 sleeps of an hour and now is trying to drop another sleep. As for the feeds dropping, as long as you are seeing wet nappies and a happy baby, all sounds fine! Enjoy the quiet time while you have it :-)
Hi!Im not sure if im much help,i have a 5 month old so am new to all this too but i do remember she did do this at about 3 months,just when i thought she may have less sleeps she was having more like she slept 10- 12 hours in one go at night and then like another 5 in the day!She has only just started stopping this now,but saying that some days she still is a big sleepy head and has about that!I also was worried about the amount of feeds but it didnt last long and she is still gaining weight etc.Just when you think you have them all worked out they change hey!:rolleyes:
Just wanted to say hi Angie Dee!
it sounds pretty normal to me, just as long he's not keeping you up all night!
