I have a six week old.
He eats every 3-4 hours, 4-4 1/2 ozs.
He used to love his swing but not recently. He loves to be held now and fall asleep in my arms.
He is awake usually for a three hour span in the morning and then another 3 hour span in the evening. His evening span he is normally cranky and is usually the same times as you noted.

thanks! I am just trying to figure out what's normal at this age. I wish my ds would like something other than being in my arms constantly. maybe it will change as he gets older.

Landon is 10 weeks old tomorrow Chat Icon
He is sleeping pretty good at night now, about Midnight until 7 or 8 am. He started this at about 8 weeks. At 7 weeks he was up at about 4 am for a feeding. He rarely naps during the day. If I am holding him, he may fall asleep but as soon as I put him down he wakes up. If I am lucky he will nap about 1/2 hour per day.
He eats on average 33-35 oz of formula per day (Similac Sensitive). He eats every 3 hours (sometimes 2 hours), 5-6 oz at a time.
He hates the swing but loves the bouncy seat. BUT he only loves it in short time frames, no longer than 15 mins at a time. He loves his play mat and his Tiny Love mobile. He also loves any type of musical toys.
He is not fussy in the evenings. His fussy time is about 4-6pm.

ETA: He also loves to always be in my arms. but it does get better as time goes on. TRUST ME! I could not put him down when he was 4 weeks old. He is so much better now.

wow! 10 wks already!! I remember reading your birth story like it was last wk...LOL! Thanks for responding, people keep telling me it will get easier. I have to go back to work in 6 wks so I hope he's sleeping better by then. At what week did Landon start to smile?

(He's such a cutie)

DS is 9 weeks and sleeps 8pm - 4am, eats and goes back into the crib from 5am - 7am (doesn't always sleep though, but will lay quietly)

Naps: he'll take cat naps after every 1.5 - 2 hours that he's awake (about 1/2 each).

He's not a big eater. He eats about between 3 - 5oz every 3 hours except at night. He takes about 6oz at his 4am feeding.

He typically eats, than wants he playmat (doesn't want to be held), then swing for his cat nap. Then it's time to eat again.

He does not really like the bouncy for more than 15 minutes or so, he likes the swing and playmat alot.

He's not really fussy unless he has gas. He's on Similac Alimentum
