my exclusively breastfed baby is almost 7 weeks old and just did a six hour stretch of sleep - usually she wakes every 3 hours. should i be worried or is this normal?

Well, I for one am jealous! My 18mo has yet to do a stretch that long!

My ebf started doing longer stretches about that age too, I don't think it's unusual. Best just to enjoy the extra sleep. It only lasted a couple of months for us unfortunately but hopefully you'll have more luck
