Before anyone says it I know I'm incredibly lucky to have a baby that is sleeping so well at night! She has loved her night sleep since the beginning and we always had trouble waking her for those night time feeds. Now that she's bigger we've been allowing her to sleep as long as she wants but I'm worried that 11 hours it's too long to go without a feed at this age. Anyone any experience with this and a BF baby? Should I be dream feeding her?

Hello, is she steadily gaining weight and following her centile? If so, I’d let her sleep and possibly express once in the night to keep up supply, and book in for a weigh at a clinic in a fortnight. If she’s still gaining as she should, let her sleep. There’s nothing to say she won’t go back to waking in the night again soon, baby’s sleep changes an awful lot in the first year.
