Baby sleeping too much??

Question

My son is almost 3 months old..and I just got him to sleep through the night...I give him two tablespoons of rice cereal in his 9 oz bottle..he sleeps probably from 10pm-6am..for the past 3 nights.. he eats about 5-7 oz of regular bottles every 3 hours during the day..he seems to be sleeping a lot during the day...especially when we go out somewhere and we are moving...is it ok that he is sleeping a lot..today he woke up at 6:30 went back to sleep on me at about7:15 and then woke up at 9:45..then stayed up until about 12:30 then slept until about 4...then he stayed up until about 7 and started to cry and I started to feed him and he fell asleep...we picked him up and now he is up again...i am going to try and feed him now..but I was just wondering if anyone thought there is something wrong or if this is normal..Thanks for the answers...:)

Answer 1

Yes it is normal. Babies go through spurts and at times they sleep more than others. I get a kick out of these questions cause I have a colicky baby that is 5 months and still I get no sleep. Unless baby had his immunizations, is sick then sleeping is actually a healthy thing. Let us switch for two days and see if complaints will ever arise.lol  

Answer 2

Newborns sleep an average of 16 hours per day. A three month old is practically a newborn, so don't worry about it right now.  

Answer 3

Babies sleep more with milk in a bottle

Answer 4

Your lucky if your baby sleeps that much! It'll be very very healthy! Make sure he plays football, my brother slept just as much and ate so much he's a great football player too!!

Answer 5

Thats completly normal!

maybe he's tired :)
