How long does your 9 week old sleep?

[ttcnewbie123]

Just wondering really! I am extremely happy that LO goes to bed at 7:30pm awake, settles himself to sleep, wakes around 4-5am for a bottle then goe straight back down until 7-8. I thought it was rare for them to be sleeping so long at this stage but from reading other threads lots of mums are saying their LO's are sleeping through the whole night! So... how long is your 9 week old sleeping? I have tried introducing a dream feed at around 11pm in the hope that this will get him to drop the 4-5am feed but he just doesnt drink very much because hes in such a deep sleep - maybe only 2-3 ounces as appose to his normal 6-7!xx

Lucky lady!!

My LO is 9 weeks, but 3 weeks corrected - and sleeps for 45 minutes - feeds for 1 to 2 hours then 45 mins again all night! Its absolute torture having no sleep especially with a toddler to entertain all daY! Just hoping he ll sleep longer soon!

My LO is 7 weeks Wednesday and has been going down after a bottle around 11:00 pm, sleeps straight through till 6 or 7 for a feed of 4-6 oz and then sleeps again till 10:30 or 11:00 am. We have been on vacation the last two weeks though so I assume when we go back home the sleep schedule will be the same just 2 hours earlier due to the time change. This schedule just seemed to start for her a few days ago.

My LO is 10 weeks but has been going through for 2 weeks. I do a split feed at 5 bath at 6 and the rest of the bottle at 6.15. He is asleep by 6.45 we wake him for a feed at 10.15. Until 2 weeks ago he was waking at 4 so I fed him but then he started sleeping till 5/6 so I started givin him a dummy he did that for a few days now he doesn't wake at all until I wake him at 7.

My LO is 8 weeks today, and I cant get her to go to sleep until midnight... this is an improvement from 2 am. She will only sleep till 4:30 then come to bed with me where she sleeps till about 7-8 (small feed) then goes back to sleep till 10 am.

Lo is 11 weeks and goes down around 8pm and wakes for feeds at around 1am, 3am, 5am and 6.30am...she used to sleep from 9.3pm to 6.30am from 4-9 weeks...want my sleep back! X

My lo is 9 wks. He goes to bed at 9:30 then feeds at 12:30, 3 and 6 so still every 3 hours. He has on occasion skipped the 12:30 and gone from 9:30 to 3 or 4. Pretty sure he's going through a growth spurt right now though, he gained 1lb in less then a week so i think thats part of why his feedings are close together right now.

My DH wants to try a dream feed but imo a baby is a baby and will feed when he's hungry at night and so i let. Soon enough he will sttn but i will let that happen on his own time!

My LO is 8 weeks... on average, I feed him the last time at around 11:30, he's sleeping by 12:15, and then sleeps until about 6, sometimes 7.

His naps throughout the day are maddeningly irregular though. Sometimes he'll nap for 3 hours, other times he dozes on and off in 15 minute intervals. Aaaaahhhhh
