First time mom here. So I gave my son 4 oz around 11 last night and I fell asleep around midnight. I woke up to him fussing thinking it was 2 or 3 but it was 5 in the morning! I panicked bc he slept for like 5 1/2-6 hours. I gave him 5 oz when he woke up thinking he maybe be starving. He is 2 months old...is this normal to do or should I just be grateful he slept that long??
Ps that 5 hours did feel like forever to me and it was good sleep too!
My son did the same thing at least once or twice a week. We would drink 5oz at 11pm and he wouldn't wake up till 6am. If he finishes his bottle at night and is still sucking when it runs out, just fix him one or 2 oz more.. he was really good about letting us know when he was full or wanted more. The first time he did it though I freaked out too. I woke up before him and saw daylight and panicked that something had happened to him in the middle of the night.
Let him sleep. Mine started that around 2 months and now he sleeps 5 to 6 hours straight every night. Knock on wood
First time my daughter slept like that I panicked also! 😅 she started sleeping 5-8 hrs at a time at about 5 weeks old
