Kel's Laws of Parenting: Chapter 1 - Newborns |

Here is some potentially obvious advice that I gleaned when our 3 kids were young...
- When baby sleeps, Mom sleeps
Despite the temptation to take advantage of the quiet time when your new little bundle is asleep to catch up on the long list of chores piling up around the house, be strong. Resist the urge. Save it for Dad to do - you don't want him feeling left out :-) Sleep when baby sleeps, you're going to need it !
- Let sleeping babies lie
If they're sleeping contentedly, let them be. They will wake up soon enough, and let you know when they're hungry.
Hope this helps...
