question about sleepy baby????

edited September 2011 in Pregnant
Our daughter was born on Thursday last week. She is very sleepy. It's hard to wake her to get her to feed. Is this normal???? I don't remember my other 2 being like this but it has also been 8 years since they were babies.

  • My daughter will be 2 weeks old this thursday, and she sleeps ALL the time. Within the past few days, she's started to stay awake for maybe an hour at a time, 2 or 3 times a day.
  • Totally normal. It sounds kinda mean but before 42 weeks gestation I had to really piss my babies off to get them to wake up and eat. Undress her or wipe her face and head with a wet washcloth..the angrier she gets, the better she'll eat!
