Average time for night sleep 9 week old

I have a 2 year old and a 9 week old and currently struggling a bit with sleep. I had absolutely no issues with sleep for my first baby and he was doing six hour stretches at night from about 7 weeks. However, despite regular routine and consistency, my second baby is a different kettle of fish! Last week he was up every two hours to feed (BF) and then randomly slept for over 6 hours one night. Since then (and more often than not) we have 3 hour stretches which doesn't seem long for his age.
Normal routine:
6.45pm bath
7pm feed
7.15/7.30pm sleeping
11ish feed
2am feed
5am feed
6.45am feed and up.

I'm just wondering if this is a normal amount to be feeding through the night? I'm aware that he has quite an early bed time for his age but it's the best way to juggle our time with two little ones at bedtime.
All advice welcome!

That is easily within the realms of normal for an under 4 month old. Especially for an EBF newborn.
