Baby still not sleeping
Baby is now 7 weeks old and we are still having difficulty getting baby to sleep. People say that after 6 weeks babies get into a routine and sleep better, but not our little baby. She is still only sleeping for a maximum of 2 hours. Generally she wakes after only 5 minutes and we have to try re-settle her.
After consultation with a pediatritian we were told that baby should be sleeping at leas 4 hours by now so she has referred us to a Katitane, a family care centre. My wife was interviewed on Friday and because our baby was such a difficult sleeper we were given a priority listing. Fortunately for us there was a cancellation so she was admitted on Monday. At Karitane, mothere and baby stay over for 4 nights so that staff can monitor what is happening and find a solution for getting baby to sleep.
So far it’s only been one day and we were told that we have a difficult baby. Hopefully by the end of the course baby will be sleeping better.
