When my son was born

Call it mothers intuition or just some crazy lady making speculations but when my son was born i knew something wasn't right.  He cried continuesely unless he was being held, I could never put him down or he would be screaming like someone was killing him.  I noticed he was very alert from the very beginning he was my first child so i didn't know what to expect really but i thought he should sleep more then he did he would sleep 3-4 times a day for 1-2 hours and would only sleep on my chest.  the dr's told me some babies don't need as much sleep as others so we went on about our business trying to deal with it as best as possible.
