Hi, my baby snacks during the day and falls sleep but she is sleeping very well at night if she gets ups is 1 time only if not she sleeps around 8 hrs or 6 hrs

My baby is 1 month old. How long should she be sleeping once she starts to nap? I guess depends on how full she is? Also can she nap close to bedtime? (Ex. Waking up from last nap at 6pm when bedtime is 7pm). Thanks!

My issue is, I don’t know how much she’s actually getting in one feed, if it’s actually enough because then she actually gives real hunger cues not tired cues. And also, my baby isn’t gaining weight but she’s having plenty of wet and poopy diapers. She’s also showing that she is learning even earlier how to do certain skills, then what’s average, so she checks off all the boxes for babies her age at two months, old, minus the weight gain. It makes me think that she’s not eating enough. People say to let them sleep when they’re sleeping and not to disturb the child, but she’s basically sleeping through the night now, and hardly takes naps during the day. I just don’t know what to do. There’s just so much advice out there and I keep taking all of it in and I just feel like I have no idea what’s happening to her and I’m really worried about her weight. She’s two months old now, and weighs only just over a pound from what she weighed at birth. Her pediatrician may do bloodwork at her two month visit if things do not get better. She does feel a lot lighter in the last week and I started feeding her less on demand and before that I’m pretty sure she was gaining weight pretty quickly. I just don’t know.

Is it normal for a 2 month old to wake up 2/3 times in the night for feeding? I’ve seen so many parents online saying their 4 week old baby sleeps through the night it makes me think we’re doing something wrong.
