sleeping all day?

we got up at 6 this morning for our first feeding of the day. then again at 9. i just fed the boys again at around noon and they are STILL sleeping. they've been sleeping all day!
how can i keep the boys up?

 

let them sleep! they are too young to keep up for long periods of time and at that age they REALLY need their sleep.

 

When my girlies were little it seemed like they slept all the time, only waking to eat and for the witching hour. When they were that age they would fall asleep on the bottle in your lap and there was no waking them. Enjoy the peace while you can!

 

At that age, they do sleep a lot. I can remember wishing they would stay awake more, then just a few short months later wishing they would sleep more!

 

OK thanks ladies.
just thought they were supposed to stay up longer throughout the day!

 

not yet. probably around month 3 they will stay up longer. then you they will refuse naps and you will wish they would just sleep already.

 

For the first couple of months my guys were all over the place. Some days I swore they only slept 15 min. total for the whole day, and some days they'd sleep all day and be up at night. I found it took a few months for them to settle into a sleeping-at-night, napping-and-waking-during-the-day pattern.
