If you're b___st feeding, your milk may have not completely come in yet so she isn't getting as much in each feeding. Also, swaddle her up and that will help. My little girl wakes herself up by kicking her legs and moving her arms. Swaddling helped stop that. I wish you luck! I've been going through the same thing for about a month now. We've finally gotten her to sleep about 3 hours at a time.

My son did this for the first 5 weeks! It was horrible! For my son, at that time we had to change his formula due to an allergy and put cereal in the bottles for acid reflux and finally broke down and put him in bed with us. Then he started sleeping a little better at night. He is 4 mos old tomorrow and we still get up twice to feed him. He did not start napping for more than an hour, sometimes he still does not, until maybe 10 or 12 weeks old. Best of luck to you with your new baby!

I think that some babies experience "shell shock". They are probably like, what the hell happened to that warm sack that I was living in. Try swaddling like Kelly K said, hopefully that will help. Eventually your little one is going to become in tune with her surroundings again and settle down. It gets better with time. Good luck.
