Newborn and sleep?

How long before newborns start sleeping more than 3hours at a time? My son wakes up every 3 hours like clockwork to eat.

Mine is 1 1/2 weeks and wakes every 2-3 to eat.

Sometimes she will sleep for 4 hours in the middle of the night.

You've got a while. My daughter sleeps about 7-8 hours at night waking about halfway through but during the say its every 2-3 hours sometimes more to eat.

My son is now 3.5 weeks old and he sleeps 5-6hrs at night after his 8pm formula feeding. When I breast feed he wakes every 2-3 hrs to eat. So I guess it depends on the baby.

I don't think Jake started sleeping longer stretches (4 - 5 hrs) until 4 - 5 weeks. He was sleeping 8 hours at around 10 weeks.

Nicholas started sleeping 5 hours at night when he was 4 weeks old. Now he is 6 weeks old and he is still sleeping 4-5 hours straight at night.

It varies, for me it took 6 weeks to get one longer stretch.
