Worst of both worlds with Gavin. He cat naps just like you described AND wants to be held all the time. Then again, he's only 5 weeks old. We're planning on trying out the sleep training thing in a few more weeks.

Yeah, it's tough in those early weeks!

BTW, called the ped today since Gavin was crying and nursing almost non-stop this morning, and he told Nessa to try eliminating some stuff from her diet (diary, so she's upset since she's a milk fiend) and possibly suplementing with formula since there's a possibility she might now be producing enough milk. Gonna give that a try.

Good advice. Please tell her not to feel bad if supplementing is necessary! Some women get very upset, and feel like they're not adequate mothers if they're not 'producing' enough.

(I'm one of those sinful formula-feeding mommies, both mine were formula from day 1.)
