My son is 12 days old, already back to his birth weight by day 5. He’s however a night owl, for some reason between 10pm-2pm he’s wide awake, you can give him all the breast in the world, I could have expressed some milk to leave out for his aunt to give it to him, yet he won’t sleep, he’s just up and excited. I guess those are the hours I used to eat a lot while pregnant and get the most movement, but now he’s out, I’d like to get him in a routine. Any tips?

They take awhile to settle into night and day, I wouldn’t stress too much on a routine yet my little one is 5 months and her routine still changes
We did make sure that at 8pm she would go down to sleep or a nap at least and go to bed too dark room no noise and slowly she started getting into the routine of doing down at 8 then waking every 2/3 hours for a feed
Some say to have playtime or stimulation toys like lights or the fishes in the tank to make them sleepy
