Still so sleepy

My boys were born at 34 weeks. They've been home two weeks now and are 4 weeks. They still sleep all the time. They are awake occasionally but no more than lets say 15-20 mins. Is this normal?

 

Yes! By the time they're 6 weeks (full term equivalent) they'll be more wakeful. They need lots of sleep they've got heaps of growing to do!

 

Yes. completely normal. Our LOs were born at 34 weeks also. about a week past due date we saw a slight difference in alertness (this maybe to strong a word). We followed their lead and kept things dim and quiet.. good for growing.
Then about 6 weeks (adjusted age) they started being awake more.

 

Yeah, my girls also perked up a lot once they hit 6 weeks adjusted age.

 

Yes normal! Enjoy it while you can... sleep when they do if you can because they will not be sleepy like this forever.

 

My boys were born at 37+4 and are 10 weeks and still sleep most of the time. I get about an hr of awake time out of them each day. Doc says its normal for them even at their age. Just enjoy it.. they will be crawling around before we know it !
