My baby is 8 weeks old and she sleeps thru the night but now isn't napping during the day but she seems tired?

She sleeps maybe 5-10 minutes but wakes up. I can hold her or put her down and she wakes up? She is happy most of the day but sometimes gets fussy and looks tired but won't sleep. What can I do?

    Count yourself lucky!!!I have had 3 and all of them were vampire hour newborns. If you are really concerned call your pediatrician. Though unlikely it doesn't sound unusual. Count it as a blessing to have such an angel!!

    Try laying her down and aptting her back. Try putting her to bed laying her down first instead of holding her to sleep. My son went through that faze for a short time. I just kept at laying him down. Tried wrapping him all teh way up. Having the blanket a little loose. Laying him down after a warm bath ect..

    The great things about babies are, they will do what they need when they need. If she is generally happy, then you are doing fine! And congrats on getting her to sleep through the night!

    rock her to sleep, try Johnson's bed time bath, enjoy this time at least she sleeps through the night my 7 week old don't do that yet he gets up at least 2 times through the night. i wish my son would sleep the whole night.
