Bedtime question

I might have started a bad habit, when I put LO down at night with last feed at like 11pm, he sleeps straight through to 7.

I started putting him down earlier like 9-10 he woke up every 2 hours on the dot. What is the incentive to putting him down earlier?

Not sure what to do and what is normal, just really hoping for one long stretch. He is EBF.

    I know for us (ours is bottle fed breast milk) we started out with him going to bed around 10-11. He would sleep until 3-4. He started changing his bedtime on his own, now he goes down around 8-9 and sleeps until 5:45-6:15 which is when we wake him up. If it is working for you right now then let it keep working. Your little one will tell you when they are ready to go to bed earlier, just be ready to see their cues. You could try doing it 10 minutes earlier if you want to start getting to bed earlier. Every baby is different, so don't worry if yours isn't doing what everyone else's baby does :)
