How should a three week-old newborn baby act?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sleep: most of the time. Wake to eat and then sleep more. Be awake about 3-4 hours a day at the most and regard your face, follow to the midline, grasp when palm is touched, move arms and legs, cry when hungry, wet, tired. Have 5-6 wet diapers a day.
