It's true that people have different views of what STTN is. To me, its 7-7 or something similar with no waking, no feeds etc but i do know the experts say STTN is solid 5 hours. I know she'll do it in her own time....just when that time will be, who knows!

I think I can safely say my LO will most likely never sleep 7-7 (or 12 hours). We get 10 hours at most and he's up for the day. I'm just glad that the past week he's actually managed to do the 10 hours without waking a few times.

My lo only just started STTN recently - a few days before her first birthday

Tom mostly sleeps through from about 7.30pm to 5.30amish now at 21 months although we still have some nights where he wakes 1 or 2 times in the night.

We tried everything recommended when he was little except CIO or CC as I don't agree with leaving him to cry. We only feed him in the dark, tried dream feeding which was a total disaster, gradually reduced the size of the bottles in the night etc, etc, etc and it still took until now to get there. All I can say is that some babies are good at sleeping and sleep well from early on and others just take longer to get there. I found just accepting it and trying to enjoy the cuddles made it better and now I do miss the night time snuggles.
