Hi,

Just wondering if it's okay to let my 4 month sleep through the night? He goes down at 8pm and usually wakes at 4am for a feed before going back to sleep but now he's starting to go through till 7am and then he's up for the day.

A friend said this isn't great for babies so young as they can dehydrate. Is this true? Making me worry now.

Thanks xx

It's fine! Lucky you Smile
As long as he's still doing lots of wet nappies during the day, he should be okay.

Enjoy your miracle sleeping baby might not last Wink

Lol absolutely fine and healthy. By 4 months their tiny stomachs have grown enough to be able to eat more as well as sleep longer. My LO is almost 3 months and is sleeping up to 6 hours now. So lucky you! Enjoy it Smile
