Baby Insomnia

[Redshoes]

Anyone elses LO's awake more than asleep?
Isaac just doesn't want to sleep, he will nap here and there for as little as 5 mins up to 30 mins but then hes awake for hours again He will sleep in the car quite well though, and if I go lay down for a nap with him, he'll always sleep, do you think maybe he thinks sleep is only when I sleep too Anyone elses LO's like to be awake a lot? He's been like this since about 3wks old.

when emily was born all the midwifes got a shock that she just didnt sleep
she was soo busy looking at everything

shes still the same altough she is getting better
she now sleeps from 10pm until 9am and has naps during the day

it will get better
he is probably just very nosey like emily

Libby sleeps from 8.30pm till about 8.30am (sometimes later if I'm lucky) but she doesn't really nap in the day (unless she's in the back of the car).
He'll find a routine hun, I love that babies fall asleep when they see you fall asleep - I used this trick on Libby y'day as she's been poorly & grumpy & I was desparate for 20mins peace & quiet, it worked too
