My 9 month old son is still not sleeping thru the night and I am concerned.  How long did it take your little ones to sleep thru the night???

    Totally normal for a breastfed baby to wake in the night for feedings. I don't think it's normal for them to wake every 2-3 hours but 1-2 times a night is fine.

    My almost 9 monther started at 6 months. However he goes through phases of still waking to eat once a night every so often.  It can last a 3 days to a week. So my point is it's still normal for your 9mth old to be waking up. 

     I did and still do sleep train.  CIO for 10, go in and soothe, repeat until he falls asleep.  At this point I know he is nursing enough during the day and he eats 3 huge solid meals a day...so I don't think he is really hungry.  Sleep training is not for all but it is for me!  GL

    My 9 month old doesn't sleep through the night and I don't think he is any where close to it. He doesn't eat many solids yet , and since he started crawling he needs more calories. 

    I don't believe in sleep training and we bed share. For right now it works for us. You are not alone!

    I am happy that I am not the only one... he also sleeps with me but he wakes up at least 5 times at night to feed.

    Every baby is different.  Are you breastfeeding.  He might be hungry.  Try cluster feeding at night so he will sleep longer.
