He's still alseep

[Pandora]

Its coming up to 8 and 3/4 hours now, and DS2 is still asleep.
Im sure DS1 didnt sleep this long at 2weeks...Ive checked that he is OK, whic he is, just sleeping.

Do I wake him up?

Im not worried about him missing a feed, weight gain wise, Im worried about my poor bbs and supply though..I think we may be in for a day of constant feeds as a result

Very jelous Ray!
I'd let him sleep. Lu did 8-10 hr stints from about 2 weeks. Her weight gain was fine, but like you say he'll prob feed more today. She did anyway.
The way i see it is they need a certain amount of calories in a 24hr period, so as long as they have enough in the day, it's ok to do a long sleep.

But if you are worried, just wake him!

Also just check if he's jaundiced. If he is, may need some sunlight!! But other than that, enjoy!! xo

[Junglemum]

Oh yeah, good ponit m23. it's ok to let him sleep presuming there is no medical reason to wake him.

[Pandora]

nope, not jaundice that I can tell, but lots of natural light about the place so I can put him in the sunlight anyway.
thanks guys I was getting worried!

[Olive]

id leave too!! go back to bed love!!

[sneakysparkle]

I probably wouldn't let him sleep past 9.5/10hrs though, I'd pop him on the boob then for sure!

[Pandora]

he finally woke up after 9 and a half hours, drank until he made himself sick
lol

[Cassius2]

what a little champ!! giving his mumma a good rest, and himself some good ol' growing sleep!

too funny that he ate like a trooper when he woke! how gorgeous!
