a few questions

[melissa22]

for the past four nights my little one has slept through the night
10.30pm-5.45am
10.00pm-5.45am
10.15pm-5.45am
9.50pm-6.45am

i was just wondering as hes nearly 6 week old is he sleeping too long and do i need to wake him for another feed? and also when he wakes up i always think hes guna be starving for sleeping so long so make him extra and he only takes the usual 3-4oz is this ok? x

I wouldn't wake him - he obviously must be having enough milk during the day to satisfy his needs and doesn't need any during the night.
Erin was exactly the same she started sleeping 10.00pm till 6.00am at about 8 weeks old and then by 11 weeks was going 10.00am till 8.00am. She had about 4oz every 3/4 hours during the day and was really contented with that. xx

he's having 3-4oz every 2 and half-3 hours during the day think he has a total of about 20oz before he settles for the night.
what about when he wakes for the mrning feed should he just take his usual amount or should he be taking more? i always think hes starving for sleeping so long x
