My newborn sleeps during the day and stays awake at night; when does this day-night confusion get better?

Day-night confusion is quite common in newborns because there's no day-night cycle in the womb. Usually around 6-8 weeks, as your baby's own melatonin production begins to regulate, this confusion resolves on its own. To speed this along, you can keep the room bright during the day, allow active play after feeding, and keep evenings dim, quiet, and calm. If this lasts longer than 3 months or if other sleep or diaper issues accompany it, consult your pediatrician.
