Hi,
I am just after a bit reassurance .... I know that a lot of mums, if not exactly lie, slightly exaggerate. However, it's a bit much now and I hear "everybody" raving about the sleeping habits of their DC and I am wondering if only my ebf son isn't sleeping longer than 3 or 4 hours in one go at night and starting the day between 5 and 6 am?

I usually feed at 7, 11pm, 2am and 5.30am ....

DS is 14 weeks and on the 9th percentile (if this makes a difference).

How about your ones?

:) Thali

My 12 wk old definitely isn't sleeping through, up 3 or 4 times between 2-4am (despite a formula dream feed at 11pm). It seems to be other things waking her up rather than hunger though (she's trying to suck her thumb and also moved to cot recently and gets stuck in funny positions). She's also a very light sleeper and struggles to nap during the day. If you're getting some decent daytime naps I wouldn't worry yet about sleeping through the night. If (like me...) you're not getting a rest during the day then maybe see if dh can deal with some of the night wakings, assuming it isn't always hunger (and if it is try a formula top up maybe?).
