2week old, sleeping always

2017-10-07 12:44:37
My son is 2weeks old, born on 36weeks, 3days. Has a lil bit of jaundice (bilirubin level 10.1) but feeding well, peeing and pooping regularly. He has also regained his birth weight of 3.3kgs n is now 3.42kgs. My concern is about his sleep pattern. He wakes up once in 2 or 3hrs for feed n goes back to sleep. He is hardly awake for 30mins a day. Is this normal, plz advice

Sleeping in your child is normal. But be careful about jaundice , as it may rise high in coming days, as he is preterm.
