Baby's sleep: how does it work?

When it comes to sleep, your baby will need loads of patience and calming rituals to help them fall asleep peacefully.

  • Your newborn's sleep cycles are much shorter than yours, and they spend more time in REM sleep, which is essential for their extraordinary brain development.
  • The quality of their sleep will depend on several factors: their internal clock as well as external conditions, such as light and external stimuli.
  • As soon as your baby begins to develop certain time habits, don't hesitate to establish a soothing daily routine.

That seems rough hun maybe try keeping baby awake longer when you wake them up for feedings. Mine sleeps around the clock minus when she wakes up to eat sometimes she won't even wake up when I change her butt.

Baby girl wants to sleep only on my chest night and day. Every time she’s with someone else or in her bassinet she doesn’t sleep. Today she didn’t sleep except few hours on me. But I’m human and I need to sleep…she’s two weeks old!

This happened with my son too and it got to a point where if it got too bad and I was exhausted I put him in bed with me . I try to put him in his bassinet as much as possible but sometimes he refuses to go back to sleep so I put him in bed with me and he sleeps longer than he would in his bassinet and I get some sleep too
