They won't know night from day for a little while, so, with that in mind, it's just something they will settle into as they grow

No. Its a 2 week old baby, realistically what do you think you can do?

They have small stomachs as well so need to be fed every few hours, so yes he will wake up at night for that reason alone.

It took until 7 weeks for my DD to sleep for 6 hours in one stretch, and many years for one of my friends' children.

Oh and my DD cluster fed in the evenings to make up for the fact she could sleep for up to 7 hours in one go.
