How long should a 3 week old sleep?

Yes, a 3-week-old needs to sleep a lot, around 14-17 hours in total, but in short cycles for feeding.

A 3-week-old? They mostly sleep, eat, and, well, you know! Expect 14-17 hours in a day, but broken up into short 2-3 hour naps and bursts. If you're hoping for a full night's sleep, bless your heart, but not yet! Just enjoy the quiet moments when they do sleep.

Oh, the early weeks are so demanding, I remember! A 3-week-old sleeps a lot but in small cycles, waking every 2-3 hours for feeds. We used to give a gentle oil massage before bath and then swaddle tightly; sometimes it helped them settle a bit. But frequent feeding is key at this stage.

Teen hafte ka bachcha bahut sota hai, total 14-17 ghante din mein. Par yeh lambi neend nahi hoti, har 2-3 ghante mein uthega doodh peene ke liye. Yeh normal hai, ghabrao mat.
