Newborn day/night confusion? Help please
Hi there
My dd is only 11 days old but I am finding she is awake for a good few hours at night, needing constant feeding and just not settling to sleep, but she can sleep well in the day, having a feed and then settling back down without any fuss. DS didn't seem to have this day/night confusion and would wake up to feed during the night when he was a newborn but then straight back to sleep.
My question is should I try to keep her awake more during the day or will she sort this sleeping at night out herself as she gets a little older? I have tried the Gina Ford routine but DD qill not feed or stay awake unless she wants to and maybe I should persevere with the routine but after being up with her from 2am - 6am I don't have the energy to try to keep her awake at 7 as I just want to get a few hours sleep while she is sleeping! Any advice greatly appreciated!
TIA
