    Linda - Louis varies his feeds all over the place. Sometimes he can go for 4 - 6 hours overnight but then usually in the morning he only last 2-2.5h. I'm sort of thinking he catches up for going so long overnight.

    We can only do what we think is right!

    Kristie - you'll probably find it will happen that way. As he sleeps longer and longer overnight, his feeds during the day will be more frequent because he's trying to get in all those calories in a shorter space of time.
    After a couple of months, you'll have a good routine going - and a lot of babies sleep right through (10-12 hours) without a feed! Mind you, Gabby has only really started to sleep that long since she was about 6 months old. Still, I was getting at least 8 hours out of her before.
