Who else has a 9-10 mth old and quite frankly could not care about them sleeping through yet?

[Piffle]

Or am I quite bizarre?

me, bt maybe we're both just odd

oh thank goodness

My DS didn't sleep through (ie 8pm - 6am) until he was 11mo. We wanted time to sleep through, but weren't desperately concerned if he didn't.
Then after a couple of nights of sleeping thru the teething kicked in and for the next couple of weeks we had shocking lack of sleep.

I've found it more difficult to cope with broken nights now that we've had a period of proper sleeping.

Mine is a bit younger - only 5 mths but it's incredible even at this age how many "raised eyebrows" I get if I dare to mention to most people that she "ISN'T sleeping through yet"

Doesn't bother me much tbh. Will do dream feed in a few minutes then she will be up at least 1-2 times for milk, plus extra dummy requests. Kind of get used to it. Sometimes I want to keep her in my arms after a night feed as I love it - just me and her. (while dd1 and dh are asleep and it is just the 2 of us)

With DS1 I didn't care at all - he co-slept with us, so would usually go to bed when we did, and then he and I would stay in bed late the next day (regularly didn't get up until 10 or even 11 )

Then I had DS2 and suddenly it seemed absol-frickin-lutely IMPERATIVE that they should both be in bed by 8 at the latest.

My DS2 is bit younger at 8 months but I dont give a monkeys if he sleeps through, he never has yet. His brother didn't sleep through till he was about 11 months and even then it was a rare event.
Life is too short to worry about such things.

Hardly dare admit that my DS was not sleeping through the night till he was over 2yo.

My ds is 13 months and not sleeping through. To be honest It doesn't bother me, i'm of the mind that things all come right in the end. Why put needless pressure on yourself or the baby? I went with the flow with dd too.

I used to say (and still say really - dd is 21mths now): 'Oh yes, she sleeps beautifully. Still wakes a few times of course... but sleeps really well' Wanted to convey to people that I thought it was NORMAL. (mind you, she used to sleep til late at that point )

When dc2 comes along I have vowed not to even THINk about it til at least 12months if not longer...

I wouldn't say I don't care at all, but I really don't much mind that DD (7 mos) still wakes for milk and reassurance. She drops straight back off, we get enough sleep, and since she sleeps in our bed I don't even have to get up. I'm not all that tired, so I reckon it's fine! You can't go looking for problems when so many crop up on their own.

I am quite happy to tell anyone who asks that I still feed my 5.5mo DS once or twice a night. I love snuggling with my little boy, and luckily neither of us have trouble getting back off to sleep after a night feed

Am only planning on ever having one child, so am well aware that broken nights don't last forever. [melancholy emoticon]

I'm not too bothered either. DD is 8 months old and goes to bed at 6pm, wakes for a feed around 11ish, then 4 then 7 and finally decides it's time to get up and play around 8am. As we are co-sleeping and I'm breastfeeding it's not a big faff.

Now I have to go back to work in 5 weeks - 3 days a week so I'll let you know if the above routine is still OK

I have a two year old and I don't care - dd just gets in bed with us in the middle of the night on some nights if she feels like it and other nights sleeps through. Very happy with that although amazing how many people are horrified.

DD 9mo doesn't sleep through and I don't care!
Bed at 7pm up for feeds at 11pm and 4am, wake up 7am. just a quick bf and back to bed is fine. In fact if she does drop the 4am feed she tends to wake at 6am which I actually find more tiring.
I have started lying/ being evasive: Yes she's a good sleeper (well I think so). This avoids unwanted advice re dropping night feeds, leaving her to cry etc etc.
When she is ill/teething and up for hours at night not settling now that is a different issue.

My 6.5 month dd doesn't sleep through and isn't likely to until she eats more solids as she only usually wakes for her one/two bottles. It doesn't bother me too much (unless we have an unsettled night usually due to teething - but then sleeping through isn't going to stop that!) as she's usually good at going back to sleep either whilst being fed or by herself.

Am relieved that am not the only one to not be bothered by this - it would be great to have a full night's sleep but I can live with it. All the pressure seems to come from everyone else but I don't think it's the end of the world...yet!

I am no longer bothered now i have dc3 but got really fed up when eyebrows were raised that dc1 didnt sleep through till over a year. Each baby is different. I dont want to ignore my babies at night, nor does dh. I too love that uninterruted night time snuggle.

My ds (now 2.3) didn't sleep through until 18months+. When he did sleep through he did it on his own when he was ready. Everyone else in my PN group has tried some method of sleep training and looked at me like I was crazy I said he wasn't sleeping through yet and that I refused to do CC etc. Don't know if it's just a coincidence or not though but ds is now a better sleeper that their dc's who they are constantly complaining about having woken up in the night again.

I didn't much mind getting up at 11 or 1 or 3am to feed my 9 month old DS but when he started staying up for a couple of hours afterwards, screaming the house down and keeping everyone including his 2.9 yo brother awake, then I had to get firm! Sometimes the best thing for everyone (including 9 month old babies) is to learn to sleep all blissful night long without waking up for snacks.
