At two weeks this has changed quite a bit. Right now our daily schedule with the baby consists of the baby waking up around 7-8 a.m. and being up for 4 hours then sleeping about an hour to two hours only to wake up again for another 4 hours. For those 4 hours that he is awake he is generally fussy and hungry so he nurses for at least 2 of those hours and does not sleep...even though it is entirely clear that he is exhausted. When he does fall asleep it is always when being carried around and will wake up as soon as you put him down. Come 5/6 o'clock he is down for a few hours and then up again around 9/10 and then sleeps and eats every 2-3 hours until 7-8 a.m. Rinse and repeat.
As he grows a bit bigger I am sure he will eat more in one feeding and sleep more in turn.
He is healthy, growing and putting back on the weight he lost in the hospital. Couldn't ask for more.
