Anyone else still have a sleepy Baby at or after 2.5 months? Baby GiRL is super sleepy, and I’m talking about falls asleep within the first one minute of being on the breast. It worries me because it’s really hard to know how much she’s getting in. If she just keeps falling asleep. It’s hard to feed her when she just keeps falling asleep And I’m just wondering if this is something other mothers are dealing with. Or if I’m looking at something that I need to be worried about.

My baby is 2.5 months and went through the same thing. I just watched her diaper output really close. As long as she’s having plenty of wet diapers you’re good. She’s probably going through a leap! If her urine output drops I would get in touch with your pediatrician- you don’t want her to get dehydrated. As long as she’s not so lethargic that she won’t feed at all you’re good, she’s probably just in a little sleepy phase!! Watch those diapers & don’t stress!!!

OK so her diaper output has been OK. But it has been better and I recently switched her to exclusively breast-feeding. And I’m still noticing P diapers, but it’s less pee in the diaper, like when she was on formula. The diaper was completely puffy. Now it’s just like a trickle of pee.

You can also try doing a bottle of pumped milk at night, that’s what we do and I like having the reassurance that’s she’s taking a bit feed right before bed. But if you just want to stick with the breasts, just know that if she’s peeing and pooping she’s getting enough! Even if it doesn’t seem like it.

My 3.5 month old went through a bit of a sleep regression Thursday Friday Saturday! Last night he slept from 6:45 to 2:45 no wake ups in between then was up 2 times after that and fully up by 7:45! Took a 20 min nap by 10:30 then slept from 11-3 stayed up till 4:30 then passed out till 5:45 and just went back to sleep at 6:45 I think k he’s going through a leap as well! He’s never slept this much!

My older daughter used to do that. Honestly take it as a blessing. During regression all she needed was a little bit of breastfeeding and she would knock back out.
I used to feed her and then change her diaper to wake her up a bit and then feed again. She’s 2 now and thriving. I now have an April baby. They are polar opposites.
