2-3 month old sleeping patterns (in the day)
DS is 10 weeks and the past few days he started sleeping between feedings completely. He hasn't done that since he was maybe 3 weeks old? Should I be waking him up to stimulate him more? I try but he really just wants to sleep. Is this normal? Will it affect his sleeping at night? It's only been 2 days now. He's been out cold, and I've only woken him if it's been past 3.5-4 hours since his last feed, to feed him, until about 7 pm....

I dont have an answer but, my DD just started doing the same thing. She is 11 weeks old and slept from 10:30 am to 3 pm yesterday. today she stayed up but, is now sleeping again after a 2 hr nap! Growth spurt maybe?

I would think a growth spurt also. I wouldn't worry as long as it doesn't last. DD had some days where she'd nap for 4+ hours out of nowhere. I never woke her bc I figure she must need the sleep. I don't remember it affecting her sleep at night at all.

Sleep is extremely important so I wouldn't wake your LO up, especially if they're very sleepy. Instead I would make sure during the time that they are up that you get in a little tummy time and stimulation so you feel better about doing it each day. My son slept constantly as a baby, has developed as he has grown correctly for his age and is still an excellent sleeper at 15 mo (Knock on wood this doesn't change! lol). Hang in there....You're doing a great job!

definitely let him sleep! it's when they grow and develop. agree with pp to get in as much stimulation when he's awake!

Re: 2-3 month old sleeping patterns (in the day)
Omg DD2 is also 10 weeks and has been taking the longest naps this week. Today she took a 4.5 hour "morning" nap and a 3 hour afternoon nap and went down for bed at 8:30. I thought they started sleeping less at this age. Oh well... It's giving me loads of alone time with older DD which is really nice. I do wake her after 4 hours or so bc I'm nursing and the boobies begin to ache.
