At what age did your baby/ child regularly sleep through the night?

[Dellspoem]

I have a 33 month old and an 8 month old. I’m after a cross section of answers as I’m going crazy with exhaustion!!

DD is almost 3 and has never slept through regularly. We have had a handful of nights where she’s slept 12am-5am.

Is this normal or am I being unreasonable to expect her to sleep through the night?

DD- 4 years
DS - he is 7 and still wakes up once a night 🙄

DC1 still doesn’t sleep through the night at 6, but he at least stays in his own bed and puts an audiobook on to go back to sleep to. He was 3.5 before he stopped waking us up in the night.

DC2 reliably slept 5+ hours from birth, and slept through fairly reliably 8-7ish from just under 2.

DC1 5 months
DC2 18 months
DC3 2 years

DC1 lulled us into a false sense of security 😁

My second son, 4, my daughter, 10!

I always tried to put my babies to bed awake and they were then able to fall asleep on their own, I think it helped a bit.

My first woke every 90 minutes or more until he was one, then went down to about one wake a night until he was four, when he finally started sleeping through.

My baby is currently sleeping through at 2 months but I don’t expect that to last beyond the four month sleep maturation.

Solidarity - it’s hell.

My DS was 6 months old

Omg I jinxed it, my 8 year old woke up during the night for the first time in years last night after I commented she had slept through from 6 months! 😫

As in reliably sleep 12 hours unless ill:

DD 10 months (breastfed, never woke more than 3 times in the night beforehand)
DS 18 months (bottle fed woke every hour or two until this point)

I don't have children.

According to my parents I slept through the night while my mum was still in the maternity hospital.

A elative came to visit on a weekend morning and couldn't believe they were having a lie in.

what interesting answers! I’m tempted to make a bell curve.

10 weeks for both DD and DS.
Gina babies both.

I would say that 'slept through' means very different things to different people.

I have heard it used by people whose babies waoke for a feed and went straight back to sleep, so they woke at eg 1 am and 4 am, but because they went back to sleep it was called sleeping through!

All mine had a late night feed at 10 pm (ish) until older. I was fine with that because it meant that I could then sleep from my bedtime until morning.

Three months one and a bit later - maybe four months - then second. By through I mean down at 7.30, sleepy feed at 11pm, then thru til 6am or later. Fully through the night from seven months or so.
