A member asked:
Is it normal for 1 mo baby to wake up and crying almost every 2-3 hours ? what is the sign that a baby have lack of sleep ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, normal: That is how often 1 month olds want to eat and be cared for. They eat small amounts frequently to maintain their blood sugars and hydration because they are so small and don't have lots of reserves for doing those things. It will likely get better over the next few months, but for right now it is totally normally to wake every couple of hours.
