My 7 week old baby who usually goes to sleep for a 4 hour stretch won't sleep for longer than half an hour during the day in the last week. She falls asleep easily but doesn't stay asleep. I don't know why she isn't sleeping all of a sudden. Please help.....

Thanks for replying.... Nothing has changed in her environment as far as I am aware. The only thing is the heat wave that we are having at the moment. I take all her clothes off in the afternoon and just leave her in a nappy.... Maybe it is the heat that is geeting to her and as such she is restless..... She also has colic but I have found huge relief in taking her to a chiropracter for treatment, now her colic is under control... Basically they stretch then out because the spine puts pressure on the nerves in their tunny and as such it causes pain and discomfort.... I used to struggle to burp her but now her winds come out so easily. Maybe you should take your baby to the chiropracter, you might see a huge difference, I certainly have....

Babies do tend to sleep less when they start to be more aware of their environment. That's definitely what I would check first. But you do get those babies who sleep even if there is a hurricane, so I guess it's also just luck. All the best.

my 7 week old baby does not sleep much. my health nurse told me to give him a bath and wrap him up,that sometime works
good luck.
