My daughter is 15 weeks and EBF.
She goes to bed at around 8/830pm and will sleep until 2 - 3 am (usually a 6 hour stretch); then she wakes again around 5:30/6am, feeds, and will sleep until 8:30/9am.
Typically regardless of when she goes down it is -
6 hour initial strecth
2.5 hour strecth
2 - 3 hour strecth
What are your babies doing? I am wondering when or how the 6 hour stretch will get longer.
Re: At 15 weeks, how is your baby sleeping at night?
August '16-January '17: Clomid + HCG + IUI/TI = BFN
February/March '17: Menopur + HCG + IUI = BFN
April '17: Menopur + HCG + TI (due to too many mature follicles) = BFN
May '17: Took off due to cysts
June' 17: Menopur + HCG + IUI = Cancelled due to 8+ mature follicles
November '17: Clomid + HCG + IUI= BFN
December '17: Menopur + HCG + TI= BFP!!!! Due August 2018
Noooo! Say it ain't so! Ha ha!
I totally thought it was crap as my son slept awesome, then around 15/16 weeks he started waking once a night for no reason, then a few weeks later twice, and then blamo......4 month wakefuls!
At about 15 weeks, DS was pretty much sleeping through the night, usually a 6 or 7 hour stretch, and usually waking once to eat.
Since about 16 weeks (so for the last month or so), he's been waking about three times to feed (2 if we're very lucky), with a maximum stretch of four hours, but it's usually more like three. I'm completely exhausted, feels like he's a newborn again!
My first was a terrible sleeper so it's a very nice change!
At 15w she was just about the same... She didnt need to eat when she woke up but she needed to be soothed back to sleep...
Now at 18w if she has a bottle between 7&8 she sleeps much better thru the night... She ate at 745 last night and didnt stir at all until 430
We're here. And trying to transition to her crib, too, so it's doubly bad. This too shall pass...
My 15 week old goes down at 6:20 (she chose this time and look out if you miss it by a few minutes). I dream feed her at 8:30 and 10:30 She then sleeps from 2-4 hours then is up every 2 hrs until 6:30 when my husband brings her downstairs and she sits in highchair and watches him eat. He then returns her to me and we sleep another 1-2 hours.
She is breastfed and is in her crib for most of this though in the middle of the night I will sometimes keep her in the bed (in her nursery) with me till next feed (because we both fall asleep). In the morning she sleeps with me in the bed.
She is incredible happy and playful in the morning so we opt to have her go down with my husband for some one-on-one time before he goes to work, but she would continue sleeping if we left her.
Mine is showing no signs of extending her night stretches and with the 4month wakeful period coming I don't expect her to. But she gets a diaper change and feed and is back asleep within 15min total so can't complain.
To be honest I'm not sure if my baby is 15 weeks, but he's somewhere around there. I stopped counting weeks haha! He's 3.5 months. He had been sleeping a 7-8 hour stretch up until a couple weeks ago. Now he only does a 4-5 hour stretch. Boo.
His typical night:
Down at 8:30-9
Nurse at 12:30-1
Pop the paci at 2:30-3
Nurse at 4
Pop the paci at 5
Babble and grunt while pooping 6-7.
Up for the day at 7.
Ugh.
We switched to formula at 12 weeks. I don't sleep train my kids. They have all started to STTN at around 12 weeks. My niece, who I have custody of, started STTN at 13 weeks. My DD3, was at 16 weeks. We had been to Ireland for six weeks, and when we got home, she STTN. She is 10 months. She regressed when she was 6 months for a few weeks, (again we were traveling.)
They go to bed at 8 PM and get up at 7 AM.
