I have a question about my 6 week old. She has been a very sleepy newborn and just finished her 6 week growth spurt. (or so i think) She has always napped the best for her first nap. I feed her and put her right down, even if the feeding/diaper change is only about 20 minutes. Up until the growth spurt she would already be asleep by the time I took her to her bed. Now she is more alert. The last few days she isn't napping well for this nap. She wakes up after an hour or so, and I move her to the swing to finish the nap. My question is: Why is she waking early all of a sudden? I looked back at all my notes to see if anything has changed, but her awake time has stayed the same, around 30 minutes. She puts herself to sleep, so I don't think she has a problem with that. Her temperature is the same, I used three of the four S's. Do you think she needs more awake time? Or that she is still needing to eat more often and the growth spurt really isn't over? Its lasted over a week, and I've been careful to feed her when she is hungry. The reason I think its over is that she is sleeping a lot more at night, pooping more regularly, and when I put her in the swing she goes back to sleep. I would think that if she was hungry, she wouldn't go to sleep in the swing. So what should I do?
Help!
I would say she is ready for a longer waketime. She also might need a little bit more stimulation while awake.
