My 1st DS didn't STTN until he was over a year old, and until that point would wake to eat a couple times a night. When he was very little, as DS2 is now, he would be up at least every two hours.
Now DS2 is (of course) a whole different kid and will give me 3, 4, or sometimes 5-hour stretches of sleep at night between feeds. I should be completely happy about this, but sometimes it makes me nervous because I want to make sure he's getting enough to eat. So the question is: what are the typical nighttime stretches for you all? Anyone have a LO who's close to STTN? Mind you I'm not doing anything to encourage the longer stretches, it's just how he is. I'd be surprised if he STTN this early.
Re: Nighttime Sleep
Our LO #1 gave us 4-5 hour stretches within 2 weeks of birth. LO #2 and #3, not so much. LO #3 is up at night every 1.5-2 hours. I think every kid will be different and like PP says, they don't let themselves starve. If I were you I'd be thankful for the sleep...I know I miss it dearly and was so hoping for another like LO #1
