New mommy here

So I was just wondering how much a newborn should sleep. MY little angel sleeps all day and has been sleeping throughout the night (she just gets up for feedings) IS this too much sleep?????

Welcome and congrats!

I think that is pretty typical in the beginning, it will change but I remember DD really just woke up for feedings and diaper changes.

DS slept a lot when he was little. around 3 weeks he had some trouble going back to sleep at night but once we started swadddling him that went away.

Congrats!!!!!

My dd was like that the first week or so and then started waking up a little more.

As long as she has enough pee and poopy diapers then let her tell you when she needs to eat and sleep!!!

As long as she is eating & going through diapers, it's ok. Newborns sleep a lot in the beginning.

Hi Kenz! Everything sounds normal- enjoy all her sleep! Ashley still naps a few times per day, but the time she's awake between naps has increased a lot. Sometimes it's hard to do things while she's awake, so take advantage of all the sleeping that Marley is doing! :)
