He's 9 weeks, I don't wake him to eat. He wakes me. His long stretch is about 4-5 hours, then every 2-3 hours till we wake up for the day. He slept 7 hours straight twice so far. It was amazing but it's not his norm.

2 1/2 to 3 hours. I try to do 2 to 2 1/2 during the day and then extend it for the evening so we can differentiate night and day. I usually have to wake him to eat. Last night we did about 3 1/2 hours between one feeding and I had to wake him so hopefully this is leading to sleeping during the entire night.

My baby is 1 week old today, he seems to sleep between 2-4 hours between feedings and will wake me up when he is hungry. I've never had to wake him up.

Baby is 4 weeks 3 days and sleeps 2-3 hours between feelings at night. A few times he has slept 4 hrs. He is EBF and the LC said that once he has regained his birth weight I do not need to wake him at night to feed him so I don't..he wakes me

She's ten weeks and her first stretch is about six to seven hours and then four to five after that. She's FF and eats about every two hours during the day, I never wake her to eat unless it's been three hours since she last ate during the day.

5.5 weeks, EBF and goes about 4-4.5 hrs a stretch at night. During the day it's 2-3 hrs. I wake at 3 hrs during the day if necessary, at night I don't wake him and haven't since he regained his birthweight.

My baby is 8 weeks old and she sleeps straight for 6 hours before waking up to eat then 2-3 hours after that long stretch to eat again. I am EBF

My LO is 7 weeks and he will wake me up every 2-3 hours to feed. Occasionally we will get a 4 or 5 hour stretch but that is rare. I do not wake him to feed, he most certainly wakes me!

@ 7 weeks he will sleep 5-7 for the first stretch then 3-4 after that

DD is 11 days old. She usually has one long stretch at night (anywhere from 4 to 6 1/2 hours!), then does some comfort nursing. During the day, she goes anywhere from 2-3 hours between most feedings.

5 weeks. Wakes every 2 hours. No I don't wake him.

She is 2.5 weeks old. At night she usually sleeps 4 or 5 hours once and then another 3 to 4 hour stretch. During the day it's every two hours. Since she regained birthweight I have not been waking her at night. But I do wake her at 2.5 hours during the day. Otherwise she is hungry at night and wakes up more frequently.

She is 5w1d. My pedi said I shouldn't let her go more than 5-6 hours overnight due to their sugar levels but that was at 2 weeks so I'm not sure when I can stop waking her. Usually she'll go 5-6 hours the first stretch and it's about 50/50 me waking her vs her waking me. The next stretch is usually 3-4 hours. She is formula fed.
