They're confused at first n mainly stay awake at night. My son was colicky so he was awake every night all night screaming. Don't let them go more than 3 hours with out eating.. unless you formula feed I think it's 5 hours cus they stay full longer but the more you feed during day the better and less they will wake up at night.
