Sleeping through the night

LaurenAshmore31 · April 2013

While out to dinner one night I met a mom with her son who was born a few hours after my son. Both three months old now. She told me that her baby sleeps from 9:3010:30. I about fell out of my chair!!!! WHAT???"I screamed! I'm up every few hours, four hours at the most. Is this normal? Am I missing something here? What can I do to make my son sheep through the night too? I keep him on a schedule much like the one from Babywise. Eat, play, then sleep. He sleeps from 10:30 to 1 or 2 then it's every hour after that. He's sleeping but fussy from then on... Any suggestions?

It really just depends on the baby, etc. With my first 2 babies they went to bed by 7pm and would sleep 5 hour intervals from birth, nurse and go straight to sleep and wake up for the day at 7-8 am. They were sleeping 10 hours straight by the

I wouldn't stress over it. Every baby is different and a lot of times it changes as they grow, teethe, hit milestones, etc. My baby went from waking twice a night to five times then back to two, then to three, etc. Babies that young, in my opinion, if the

I agree that every baby is different but there's obviously nothing wrong with hoping your baby starts sleeping through the night. My first started sttn by four months, my second by three months (wow!), my third by four months and now my fourth is
