Not sure what is wrong with her really.
But, she usually sleeps after her feeding and changing.
But now it has been over 3 hours since her last nap and she hasn't slept.

crying I need to sleep too

^^ A PM would be nice for anyone that knows anything about what to do.

And no it's not Colic, she ain't screaming her lungs out...Yet sweatdrop

Despite the fact that babies do sleep a lot they also spend some of their time awake. More often than we like it to happen it overlaps with the time that we would like to be sleeping.

Sometimes at night a baby may stay awake because it's too quiet. Just having some "white noise" in the background seemed to help with Kay. We try to keep things quiet when the baby's asleep because that's what we like. From what I have read it was actually not quiet in the womb. For one they tell you to talk to your baby when s/he's in the womb because s/he will hear your voice and learn to recognize it. I can tell you it was interesting to go back in to the store where I worked while pregnant with Kay and see her react to the voices of those whom I spoke with regularly at work. She knew their voices. It was also funny how the beep of the cashregister letting the cashier know that the item had been scanned seemed to sooth her. rolleyes

maybe she just wants to be awake and look around, some babies just do that. my daughter is still in utero but i live with other little babies and some sleep alot but then others just like being awake..... maybe try some baby benadryl, a tiny bit to help her rest and to help mommy not go CRAZY lol wont hurt anything.

you might want to try playing some soft, quiet music in the background. or maybe rocking him/her and humming softly. that worked on my son when was awake in the middle of the night...when i needed to sleep. try that!
