  2. The newborn sleeps about 17 hours a day with periods of wakefulness gradually increasing..
  3. He will probably follow your same sleep and wake patterns, and you can expect him to be awake soon..
  4. He is being stubborn by not waking up when you want him to. You should try to keep him awake during the daytime so that he will sleep through the night..
