My sister gave birth to a 10 lb. Baby 3 months ago and she went through the same thing. She had to sleep with him on her bed right by her boob because he would wake up every half an hour hungry. So as soon as she would hear him cry she would just pop her nipple in his mouth lol it helped her sleep a little more. Also, take advantage during the day time when she naps to nap with her. So sleep whenever she sleeps and you'll be a little more rested. **** the house chores you need to rest!

It can last 2-3 days or up to a week after that she should sleep a little longer at night anywhere from 2-5 hours.

I went through the same thing with my baby girl it is just a growth spurt and will pass soon feed her as much as she's wanting to don't let her cry it out you will both get back to a normal schedule it only last about a week or so. It's exhausting but just stick with it it'll get better
