Only up once overnight

My 11day old only wakes once for a feed overnight, say we go to bed at 10-11, she wakes between 3-4 for a feed, she’s been like this since almost day 2.
Is this normal? I was under the impression that newborns are up frequently overnight.
I’m not complaining as a solid 4 hours of sleep is amazing.

It is normal. Just wait. Grin
You may have a sleeper, but- and I feel badly telling you this- probably this pattern will change.
It's very early days. Enjoy the sleep while you can and hope that you've just happened to breed a champion sleeper! But just be aware that you'll likely have more night wakings in the next 2-4 weeks.
Congratulations by the way!

DS lulled me into this false sense of security every night until he was 10 weeks old... them bam! Up every hour all night every night ever since. He's now 13 months. Enjoy it for however long it lasts OP and hopefully you'll be luckier than me Grin

My first was like this and was sleeping through by 6 weeks. Aside from illness she’s never woke up in the night since.
