7 week old long stretch

3 replies

My almost 7 week old has very impressively started to do a 5-6 hour stretch; however it is from 6.30/7 until 12ish. I was just putting him for a nap at this time but now when I've finally got him off to sleep he hasn't woken. Is there any way I can move this longer sleep to 11-5ish or is there nothing much to be done? He wakes at 3 and then 6ish after this

Sounds like he's moved to an early bedtime which they all do around this age. Annoying for you unless you also go to bed then (!), but I would go with what baby is doing otherwise you'll mess up his body clock

It's not my instinct to mess with it but it's a bit annoying!! Early bed then...!

It's really great he's doing such a long stretch so soon. I know what you mean about the timing being annoying tho! At least you have your evenings back :-)
