6 to 7 weekers

Is your LO still sleeping 3 to 4 hour nightly stretches with an occasional 5 hour? How much do you feed at each waking? My DD will nurse plus take 3 to 4 oz from the bottle, and I'm thinking we need to up that. Just curious to see what you do.

  • My LO is 6 weeks and has been eating 4 to 41/2 oz every 3 hours.  At night the most she will sleep is 4 hours.  Can't wait for her to sleep longer stretches at night, although I still have to get up since I EP!&

  • My 6.5 week old son sleeps 6-7 hours at the beginning of the night and then another 2-3 hour stretch once we feed him.  During the day he eats every 2-4 hours.  He eats about 5 oz after his first long stretch of sleep at night.

  • He goes down around 7 or 8 and sleeps to about 3 or 4. He's a great sleeper.

    He also eats 6oz every 3 to 4 hours during the day so I don't think he's hungry during the night.

     

  • She just turned 6 weeks on Saturday and has started doing two 4 hour stretches followed by a 1.5 hour stretch. The first time she wakes DH feeds her a 3oz bottle then second time I breast feed her.
  • My LO is 7.5 weeks old, but she has been sleeping from 10pm to 6am for the last 2.5 weeks. But she started out with 5-6 hour stretches from birth (YES, we have been VERY fortunate!). She cluster feeds from 6-10pm and she'll have a big feed when she wakes

  • I never know how long LO is going to sleep at night. Most of the time it is every 3 hours. I wish he would get the memo that he is big enough to go at least 5.
