@obubba_app: Newborn grunting, twitching and wriggling all night? It's often active sleep 💛 Save this for the next night feed. 😴 Newborns sleep in two main ways: active sleep (twitches, grunts, little smiles, flickering eyes) and quiet sleep (still, floppy, steady breathing). 🌙 Roughly half of newborn sleep is active sleep, so they can look restless even when they're fast asleep. 🔄 Their sleep cycles are short, so a stir isn't always a full wake-up. ⏳ Give it a moment before you pick them up: many drift back off on their own. If they're hungry or upset, go to them, you can't spoil a newborn. 🛏️ Waking on put-down? Wait for floppy arms and slow, steady breathing first. Every sleep on their back in a clear cot. Every baby is different, and if something doesn't feel right, your midwife or health visitor is always there to help. Log each sleep with one tap and OBubba learns your newborn's own awake times, then suggests when the next sleep is likely.
