What could be wrong 😢

This sounds familiar to me! Our wee one is 3 weeks old on Sunday and I feel like he’s cluster fed pretty much since birth. Then he’s had the odd day where his feeding is more 2-3 hrs apart and I feel like a semi normal human again (kinda). But yesterday morning he was literally on and off the boob for four hours straight after a sleepless night… cried as soon as i took him off…Today I started wondering is this normal?! And I’ve been checking his temp and analysing him! But from what I’ve read it is pretty normal at this stage, you can always check in with your midwife if you’re concerned? Anyhoo just thought I’d reach out and say I’m with ya there and it will get bettering

*Better even 😂 (sleep deprived)

Sounds super similar to us… baby boy is 5 days old (born 27th) and sleeps okay during day. during night it is much harder to put him down to settle in his crib and he finally does about 5.30am. All I know is that it’s very normal for newborns to basically be nocturnal, it’s just tough on us until things settle x

I'm experiencing the same, although bottle feeding. My baby is three weeks old - sleeps a lot during the day but crying for a feed every two hours at night. I used to think something was wrong but it's normal. It is very tough but won't last forever x

Im also having the same, my little lad was born on the 28th! Can I just saying seeing all of the other women commenting on this post at this time of night makes me feel a little less alone with this ❤️❤️

We have had nights like this with our little girl, she cluster fed and I was so exhausted. We are trying to get her to wake up for a bit before bed to tire her as she was having awake periods nearly all night

Thanks ladies! I agree, it’s so comforting knowing we are all going through this together!

My little boy (15 days pp) went through a phase of that. Wake up about 1am and then constant on off feeds until 7am.

He has now changed pattern to once every 4ish hours, but they can be long feeds taking up to 2hrs with burping and switch boobs etc.

Best advice = get sleep when you can even if it is daylight. It does get better, just need to get through those initial growth spurts that make them ravenous little beasts :)
