Hi All

Just wanted to check this is ok! I am sure it was a 1 off but dd fed at 7pm last night....bed at 8.30pm and then slept until 4.30am. I know we are very lucky but am worried this is too long between feeds. I know I could dream feed but am happy feeding at 4.30am if she is.

She has a bit of a sniffles at the moment but we are not giving her calpol or anything.

Thanks
Sarah

Sounds great!
As long as she is having wet & dirty nappies and is gaining weight it's fine. Mine did that though between 11 - 6 and they're strapping lumps now. Grin

It's perfect.
My DD1 went from 10-7 from about 7 weeks old. she was eating enough in the day.
Your baby will wake up if she is hungry.

Agree with the others, as long as she is producing lots of wet and dirty nappies then its fine.

Enjoy your sleep.

Hi, my DD is 10 weeks old and goes 9pm - 7am regularly, and has done since 7 weeks. Enjoy it! It's great!

My DS is 10.5 weeks and sleeps 10 hours a night. He started sleeping 7 hours a night at 3 weeks old! As everyone else says, use weight gain and wet/dirty nappies as your evidence she's getting enough to eat and enjoy it while it lasts... as I understand it we're all heading towards a hellish time when they hit 4 months so I am treasuring sleep right now Smile
