Re: BFing and sleeping through the night...

I am curious about this too. My DS is four 1/2 months old and still wakes at least once (usually twice, and sometimes three times!!) to nurse.

He goes down at about 7:30, and sleeps to anywhere from 10:30 - 2:30. If he wakes 1am-2am he will sleep until 5 or six, then come in bed with me and possibly sleep until 7 or 8.

If we wakes between 10:30 and 1, he will then wake again between 3 & 5, go back to sleep, and then wake around 6 or 7.

Pretty much its a crapshoot every night. We have the same exact bedtime routine every night. I try to keep his naps at roughly the same times. But I never know what is going to happen when I put him down for the night. Sometimes he seems to get better for a while, and then we take a step back again.

Not until a little after 6 months. I think it really depends on the baby. My friend's daughter who was EBF didn't sleep through the night until after she was 1.

Re: BFing and sleeping through the night...

Gianna started early. At about 6 weeks she was sleeping 5-6 hour clips, usually from 12-6 to 1-7. Right before her 2 month birthday (4th of july weekend), she slept through from 10pm to 8-9am and has been doing so ever since. She has slept in her crib since she was 2 months, I don't know if that has something to do with it. Our Ped said at her 2 month appt that is not the norm, she is a little mature in the sleeping dept. Hey I'll take it!

By 5-6 weeks Gabriella was sleeping 6-8 hours, at least.

Gianni was about 7 months when I night weaned him. Still wakes occasionally though.

DD has started similar patterns on and off (she's 10 weeks) but is not sleeping during the day which is making her extremely cranky. sometime last week she just dropped afternoon sleeping, and i am unable to get her to bed before 11:00/12:00 at night Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

DD has also been sleeping in her crib since like day 3, but naps are sometimes in the papasan...



MY DD is queen of the power nap! She'll take a couple naps during the day at 15-30 min intervals. I thank god everyday, she can amuse herself and I dont have to hold her or play with her all day long, I would go nuts!

Same with my DD, sometimes she goes down at 11 too, I can't get her to bed any earlier. My MIL is telling me that is bad, she should go down at 8, i am just happy she sleeps, I don't care if she's up with me at 10pm.

I have no clue how to move her bedtime, and I don't want to play with fate!

DD started sleeping through the night around 5 weeks. And around 3 months she stopped.... first waking up once a nigth at 4:30 and the last few days, waking up at 1:30 also. I think we are going to need to do the dream feed.
