10 weeks in - how many hours between night feeds?

[HPmum2B]

DD2 is 10 weeks old tomorrow, and still only does 3 hours between night feeds... this is what she has done since the day she was born, so there is not really been any improvement. In fact if anything it has got worse, because she takes longer to settle now.

I know all babies are different, this baby is certainly very different to DD1, just looking for someone to give me some hope that it will improve soon...

I am a very tired mummy!!

My son was every 3 hrs day and night up to 4 months, he then went to every 4 hours which felt amazing!

Just remember it won't be forever, all babies are different like you say. Hang in there. X

I think my ds was doing about 4hrs in the day at that time and 6-7 hrs at night.
Saying that he is almost 7 months now and goes 3and a half hours in the day, but it's getting longer between becauseof weening, but thankfully he does do 12 hrs at night. Hope your lo starts to do longer stretches soon x

The last 2 nights dd has slept 8-4, hoping its not a fluke, tonight will tell. Before that she had one stretch of around 5 hours anywhere between 7 and 4 but usually around 9-2 then back to every 3 hours.

At 10 weeks DD was waking every 2 hours at night. She is 12 weeks now and has a bottle at 8:30pm and sleeps till 1am, has a bottle and then sleeps till 5:30am. Sometimes she will go back to sleep until 7. But most of the time we are up for the day at 5:30.

That's good to hear! Last two nights LO has slept 7-4 (thankyou cocoonababy!) and it feels too long between feeds. Still, loving the sleep!
Hope it gets better soon op x
