STTN enough for me

I put DS down at 7:30 each night and he goes down with no problem.  He stirs a bit around 1:30 and i just get up and give him his pacifier and he's good to go.  I feed him at 4:30ish and he goes back down until 8ish and doesn't even want to eat until 9am.

Is this as good as it gets? I'm fine with it but would love to be greedy and get rid of that 1:30 paci break.  The 4:30 feeding is okay though - my boobs would never last until 8am!

  • That is pretty good.  I wouldn't complain.  DS goes from 9-5:30.

    I would pump in the middle of the night to avoid your supply dropping.

  • I would take it for now! DS is in bed anytime between 8-8:30 and he wakes up to eat at 1:30 (not just stirring- he screams to eat when I pick him up) and sometimes again at 4:30.  On the weekdays he wakes up to go with me to work at 6:45 but on the weekends he'll go back to sleep until 8-8:30.

  • Oh, I do pump at 11ish before I go to bed.  Extra for the stash
  • i wouldn't complain, my lo goes from 8-12 (nurse) 12:30-4:30 if I'm lucky, sometimes only to 2:30 (nurse) 4:30-6. awake for a while, and may take a nap if I'm lucky in the am.

  • We never associated paci with sleep so we didn't have that issue. As he gets older it will stretch out and eventually he will knock out that 4:30 feeding - if he follows a similar pattern as our DS. 
  • Savi started STTN a few weeks ago, from 8:30-5:30, before that she had a 3am feeding, which she dropped. It'll get bettter Smile
