@natsbabyboy, yeah grace was born the 21/8 at 17:17

Haha yeah it's great! @natsbabyboy I'm excited for ya 😜 just don't get too disheartened if it's not every night. We are currently going through a bit of a sleep regression 😢 xx

I can't wait for his first big sleep I'll be singing praises to the world like hallelujah @angie87

Yup agree @sara-lou it's amazing when they do their first big stretch of sleep and you feel like a new person 😂

We started around 6/7weeks as well @angie87 He'd started going 3/4hr between feeds then once he went upstairs he started sleeping much longer. As you say comes with time as well. The first few weeks are routinely wake, feed, change, sleep every couple of hours! Lol

I agree with @sara-lou leaving them upstairs helped our little girl sleep so much better, was a real turning point for us! We don't have a video monitor just a normal one. At first you are up checking all the time but she's always fine. Other than that you'll probably just have to be patient. We started this from about 6/7 weeks. Gradually they just start missing out feeds when they're ready to sleep longer xx

Exactly @natsbabyboy he often would fall asleep through anything but I started noticing he'd fall asleep then keep waking. I think all the lights / tv & us talking etc meant he couldn't get into a deep enough sleep. Was amazing when he started going upstairs. Also gives the hubby & I a bit of time to ourselves again. The first 5 weeks he was up every 1.5hrs-2hrs it was knackering! But they slowly go longer & longer as the weeks go on 😊

I. might try that soon putting him to bed on his own and use a monitor see if he settles on his own sometimes I think he stays awake longer cos he's stimulated being with us @sara-lou

It just comes with time I think @natsbabyboy Max took a few weeks before he started settling better. He was a bit colicy as well which didn't help. Once I started taking Max up to bed & left him (using a camera monitor) he started to settle much quicker & slept longer. Before we were keeping down with us until we went to bed...

ha she sounds like the girl version of Jenson think theres only a day between them? Jenson was born 22nd August x @dannielle1996

@natsbabyboy, grace is a little monkey like that soon as I change her that's it she will cry till she has a bottle,she isn't taking to dummy's last night when I put it in she spat it out

yeah I might do and see if that works he's a right little bugger he lies in his Moses basket fist punching the air and refusing to go to sleep he spits his dummy out then cries that he wants it he's a monkey my boy @dannielle1996

I only upped graces bottles for her night feeds she managed about 3oz of 5 last night and only had 3 bottles during the night as I take about 5/6 up incase,try an extra ounce of the milk might settle if he's just polishing them off in one go @natsbabyboy

sounds like Jenson he's on 4oz and polishes every one of them off he went down at 9 was up. at 11 then 2.30 till 4.45 then slept 4.45 till 7 then had 40z and went back to sleep and he's started waking up slowly now @dannielle1996

Grace is exactly like that,I've given her 4oz bottles yesterday during the day and she was drinking near enough all of them so gave an extra ounce last night she was up at Half 1 then 5 then again at 7 she's fast asleep now,she had a bath at 9 and was asleep by half past but doing say a bath later might help little one sleep a little longer x
