Babies need a surprising amount of sleep. Here's on link with a chart as a guideline:babycenter.com/0_how-much-sleep-does-yoS... babies can seem sleepy when the first wake up, but as they're up a while they're get a little "zippier". Any time you have a question with your baby, however, you should really contact his doctor.
Red, watery, eyes aren't necessarily something even sleepy baby always has. Since your baby is acting differently than he had been that's a sign that you should call his doctor.
If he has red, watery eyes at times, it's possible that he may be developing allergies--that's what my daughter had, and now both of her sons have, too. Also--taking several naps during the day is pretty normal for the little ones--but I'd definitely take him to his doctor for a check up--you'll feel a lot better if you do! :).
I would suggest taking him to the doctor if he is sleeping more than usual for an extended period of time. But if it was just for a short while, there shouldn't be a problem - he might be having a growth spurt. Very small babies are prone to changing sleep patterns though, and your doctor will probably tell you it's nothing to worry about :).
Don't worry...thats a good sign. Psychological studies show that the more comfortable we are with our environment, the more we sleep at that age. Your child feels safe at with you, there is that sence of feeling that you are there and not going anywhere so he sleeps as long as he feels the need to.
Also infants tend to sleep an average of 18 to 20 hrs a day. Its a normal cycle. So enjoy, many mothers don't get that lucky...lol.
But of course if its a change in pattern, then make sure that your baby is healthy becasue this might also indicate low iron levels.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
