Why do I feel like everyone's LO is STTN but mine? I'm sure it's not the case. Please prove me wrong and make me feel better! I promise not to get butthurt if you have a good sleeper. I know mine will eventually get there too.
Mine goes to bed pretty early so technically he STTN but the night stretch is early. For example he sleeps from 7pm-7am with a 4am or 5am feed. I'm still getting up so *I* don't count it as STTN;) When I don't have to get up anymore, THAT'S sleeping all night:)))

I would say sometimes, although not by your definition. She sleeps from sometime between 10 and 11 until 6:30ish, which is our night. She's been doing this about half the time now. Other times, she wakes up between 3:30 and 4:30 for a feeding.
I voted sometimes. The past several days he has been waking up around 3-4 to eat and then again around 7. I think it's a growth spurt because before that he was sleeping from 8-9 until about 6-7. I got spoiled with him STTN and now I'm feeling like crap because of broken up sleep. It stinks!
Ha ha ha ...No. He WAS sleeping 8:30 pm - 4 AM, then back down until 6:30 or so at about 6 weeks old. It was a brief, shining moment in time that alas is no more. On good nights now he sleeps 8/8:30-3 AM, has a full feed, then back down until 5:30 or so, has a snack, then in the swing until 7:30 (I have to say I do think this is good sleep for his age - a 7 hour stretch is awesome). Then we get a night like last night when he was up at 1:40, 3:30, 4:30, and 5:30. Ugh. We went cold turkey in the crib and with no swaddle tonight, so I'm sure it will be pretty bad tonight, too.

dd started sttn at 6 weeks old. She goes to bed btween 9:30 and 10 and I wake her up to nurse at 7a.m. before work. ~ I feel really really lucky because my first two children did not sleep for 6. months. at. all.
I voted yes, but I am still waking up once between 4 and 6. However, if we didn't put him down at 8 it would be much better. He just cannot stay awake after 8.
ETA: Reading comprehension fail. I change my vote to no.
I voted "yes." For the past two weeks, DD has slept for 6.5-9.5 hours straight without waking up for feeding or diaper changes. The time she goes to bed varies between 7:45 and 10 p.m. (we are trying really hard to get her on a schedule!) but regardless, she's giving us really long stretches of solid sleep. Of course, this may change after tonight (our first time in the crib).

I chose SS becaue K goes to sleep around 8:45-9pm and wakes up at 5:30. This is when DH and I get up anyways, so to us this is STTN since he is still sleeping 8+ hours.

I voted for sometimes, however, the past few days the twins have had their last bottle between 7:30 pm and 8 pm and slept until 5 am. Last night, however, they had their bottle at 8 pm and slept until 6 am. After the 6 am bottle they went back down until 9:30 am ish.

I've been afraid to say anything for the past week and a half in fear of jinxing myself/ havung a fluke, but I think L has started STTN. At first it was 6 hours...in the last few days he gets 6oz at 7:30pm....then we bathe and he pretty much immediately falls asleep with just a bit of soothing and comforting. I feed him again at 10:30pm -4oz- in his RnP...usually he doesn't wake up. He will then sleep until 5-7am. I still wake up to check on him, though.

At 2 months old exactly she started STTN. At first it was like 10-1030ish until 7 but then progressively got longer. Now we have it at she goes to bed at 915 and has been sleeping until like 9-10 the next morning. I am not completely delusional that I think it will stay like this but one can hope. :-)
She definitely knows when its bedtime though. Tonight she was wide awake and talking almost right when 915 came around she could barely keep her eyes open.

I usually (excluding growth spurt) get a 4 hour stretch, followed by two 3 hour stretches. I have had a 5 hour stretch a few times, and once she slept 6 hours, never repeated.
Im ok with it, she goes right back down, the turnaround time is down to 30 mins or less. Once I go back to work I will probably be less ok with it,ha.
She seems SO hungry when she wakes up, so I don't know when she'll start skipping feeds. Even on the 4 th I had been drinking, so she had a bottle and I know she had 7 ounces of breastmilk before bed she still woke up four hours later,ugh.

I voted yes because he sleeps 7-8 hours straight but he goes to bed early (7:30 or 8) so we get up in the middle of the night ( around 4 or 5am) then go back to bed for a couple more hours. When I go back to work I'll probably get up after feeding him, so I'll have to start going to bed super early with him so I can function.
Mine goes to bed pretty early so technically he STTN but the night stretch is early. For example he sleeps from 7pm-7am with a 4am or 5am feed. I'm still getting up so *I* don't count it as STTN;) When I don't have to get up anymore, THAT'S sleeping all night:)))

Lately he's been up 3 times between 10 pm and 7 am. It blows.
Im in the same boat.

Yes. She goes down at 9:30 and wakes up at 7, then after a feed and cuddle takes a 3 hour morning nap. Like clockwork. Since 6 weeks.
I love her. I don't want another baby because I'm afraid number two will be a little middle of the night terror.
