Newborn sleep tip: Quiet sleep vs Active Sleep

I have the one and only @takingcarababies to thank for this tip! I always understood to wait a minute or two before rushing to the baby when they fuss a little, but I never knew a baby fussing in their sleep could be so noisy and ACTIVE! 

My babies are LOUD active sleepers. They move A LOT and make lots of little noises. When I would hear them do this I assumed they were up, uncomfortable, frustrated, mad, and wanted to be picked up. I never realized they were still asleep and picking them up was actually waking them!

Now, I am guilty of rushing to my babies the second they fuss. I always figured it was easier to get them back to sleep if I soothed them quickly rather than wait till they got all worked up. It didn’t occur to me that they were still asleep during that fussing. 

Just wished I knew this with my other three kids! Again, I never realized how loud active sleep can be sometimes! 

Is this something you knew? Are you quick to pick up your babies like me?🙈❤️
