in the hospital my son slept a lot as babies do. Once we got home it was no different. People wanted to come visit and didn't understand why he slept the whole time they were there. They just wanted to wake him up, I explained over and over again that he's a newborn and all he does is eat, sleep, and need a diaper. Just let him sleep in your arms, YOU CAN'T SPOIL A NEWBORN! So my advice to new moms is that you can't spoil them, they won't break, and enjoy every moment you have with them cause time does fly by so fast
