Life with a 6-week-old is a beautiful mix of new little smiles, longer stretches awake… and suddenly tougher bedtimes. 😵‍💫 If sleep feels harder right now — you’re not imagining it. (Because how can it get harder after those first few week, right?! 😭) What to Expect at 6 Weeks: 💤 Most 6-week-olds sleep 14–16 hours in 24 hours, but evenings can be hard. 💤 Night wakings for feeds are still completely normal. 💤 Wake windows start stretching to 60–90 minutes — especially earlier in the day. 💤
