Sleeping so much...

Emily has slept so much today despite all of my efforts to keep her awake! We took a huge walk, and she got a bath. But she's still sleeping for 5 hour stretches, and when she's waking up she's barely acting hungry at all. Normally she cries when she wakes up until I feed her and today she was just staring at me with no cries.

She's ended up only eating 18 oz today and she normally has between 24-26. I don't know if she's having a growth spurt and that's why she's sleeping a lot -- because I thought she'd be eating more then too.

She is 3 weeks tomorrow. Anyone have any ideas why?

Ry was like this last week... and now i cant get him too sleep at all...all he wants to do is eat lol.. i guess making up for what he missed while sleeping last week!

Re: Sleeping so much...

Ryan is about a week older then Emily so should I assume it's just the 3 week growth spurt?
