  • How old is she?
  • I'd say it's normal. My son is a month old and he is the same way. He slept for almost 9 hours, besides me waking him to change his diaper and feed him but he went right back to sleep. This is not an everyday thing though. His pediatrician said newborns sleep for at least 16 hours out of a 24 hour time frame.
  • my kids would sleep that much at first ...
  • Ok I was just curious cuz she usually doesn't do this. And go figure she does it on a night when imstaying up instead of trying to sleep
  • If she didn't sleep a lot in thee hospital, she probably went into this stage (I forgot what they told me it's called) and they sleep, sleep, sleep and only wake to eat. And it happens right after birth. My son went into is as soon as he came out though. The first two day he was hardly ever awake!
  • Yeap that's normal...my boy sleeps ALOT! I have to force him to wake up so I can atleast feed him! And I'm bf so I don't want my milk supply to go to waste!
