Can a baby sleep too much?

[Bexie]

My daughter is approaching 8 weeks now and she is still sleeping loads. She tends to sleep for anything between 3 - 4 hours, have a feed and then to sleep again. Is this normal, my other DD was awake so much more than this at this stage.

She does have moments where she struggles to sleep but is so obviously tired. I know all babies are different with different sleep patterns, I just wasn't sure if I should be a bit worried that she sleeps so much.
