When did your baby start sleeping through

[redgum]

Thanks everyone & yes Joeve is right by no means am I expecting my little guy to sleep through. His not hard to get up to, I just want to do the right thing by him. And yes, I was thinking just 7 hours (if he wants it), I certainly will not push him into anything as we are doing baby led parenting. I just didn't know if I "could" leave him for longer than 4 hours.

Red gum - good qu! DS2 is 2.5weeks and generally waking after 5-6 hours at night. But he missed a wake up a couple of nights ago, and I slept right through too. Woke after 7hours feeling incredibly sore and full and guilty as anything! Especially as I was already feeling guilty letting him go 5 hours as the midwife said no more than 3hrs as he's under 3kg. I've since reasoned that he feeds every 2-3 hours during the day, is well hydrated and happy, and my supply is fine, so I should stop worrying! I do try to wake him after 6 hours if he's still asleep though.

DS fed every 3 hrs til about 6 weeks, then slept 6 hrs, then 9hrs til about 6 months. Then 12 hours til about 2.5. Now he wakes 2-3 times a night
