Meet Baby W, aged 5 weeks and 6 days new.
This little man was very alert and not interested in sleeping - he didn't want to miss a thing! But we did manage to get him to nod off for a short while in the end.
This is the big difference with older babies. Generally, once baby gets beyond 4 weeks they are more curious, more alert and more likely to fight sleep . . . even when you can see their little eyelids are heavy and droopy!
Whilst babies don’t have to be asleep for their portraits, they do need to be content and still, particularly for certain poses.
But who doesn’t love to see the look of wonder on a wide awake baby!
