I know 10 weeks is still early days, but wondered if anyone had any suggestions for helping improve our night-time sleep. DS is EBF, and generally goes to bed properly between 9 and 10ish (but often has an hour or two's nap in the early evening too that probably counts as night-time sleep too). He will do one stretch of typically 3 hours - occasionally a bit longer - so typically waking between midnight/1 am. He then goes for shorter and shorter periods between feeds, i.e. maybe one 2 hr stretch, followed by a 1 hr stretch, etc. through till around 6am, at which point he won't settle (and is often very windy and seems uncomfy). So typically I end up feeding him about 4 times between 9 and 6am, but spaced very close together towards the morning. This pattern has been going on since he was a few weeks old, without any very obvious improvement.
He definitely knows the difference between day and night - always very sleepy when he wakes, so doesn't generally feed or stay awake for very long. Maybe I should be waking him up properly so he has more of a feed? He does generally seem hungry, but drops off on the breast after 5-10 mins. I just don't really understand why when he seems so sleepy he can't sleep for more than one 3 hr stretch... During the day he feeds every 2 - 3 hours (on demand). His daytime naps are ok, but he does wake up after 45 mins or so quite often (usually has at least one longer, e.g. 2 - 2.5 hr, nap).
Would be very grateful for any ideas as to what's going on, or suggestions about improving this!! I'm not after miracles - I'd be overjoyed if he'd do something like 3hrs, 3hrs & 2 hrs...
