How many wake ups and how old?

[Teeki]

At 18 months my DD woke pretty regularly and a breastfeed was the only thing to get her back to sleep. She'd go to one wake up, then for a while back to three. Sometime between 18 months and two years she just stopped. Now a "bad" night is only one wake up in the early morning, it's great! And she no longer feeds back to sleep, just a pat on the back, tell her mummy is here, and she rolls over and goes back to sleep. No pushing on my part, she was just ready.

Mine were both 18-19 months before they could go all night without, but still needed water.

My (almost) 18 month old wakes twice most nights. He goes down in his bed first, and usually wakes and comes into my bed between 1 and 2.30am. He has a feed then and back to sleep. He then sleeps 3 hours ish, or lately has been starting to sleep til 7am ish. if he wakes the 2nd time, whether he feeds or not, he will usually then sleep in longer in the morning.

My DD started to sleep through 10 hours or so around 18 months, she had a waterbottle in her bed, and i'm hoping DS does soon too. She only had her first 5 hour sleep at 15 months, so big changes happened quite quickly, once she was ready.
