I did the same as the lady above said. Bath time, lotion, pj, bottle & swaddled and rocked him. First time being swaddled at night so maybe that was the trick!

What ended up working to get him to sleep so long?

My son slept from 8:45pm-3:30!! :) i was so thrilled even though I constantly checked on him because I'm use to him being up every hour. Just fed, burped and rocked him back to sleep. Let's see how round two goes! I can get use to this sleeping stuff ?

Thank you all, will be definitely be starting a schedule tonight!

We do bath, breast feed, then rock to sleep. We usually start around 7:30. Asleep by 9. Up at 12 and 6 for feeds

I bottle feed. He eats about every two hours. Sometimes 3 at night. But he wakes up every 30/45 minutes and stays awake for about an hour, then back to sleep for another 30 minutes. It's so exhausting.

@krystal you're welcome! I hope it works for you :)

Do you formula feed or breastfeed? My son is 3 weeks old and we finally have some kind of routine. We feed at 10pm, 12pm, 2am, and 4am sometimes 6am. Then he eats again at 9am. But I exclusively breastfeed.

Thank you, will definitely be trying this tonight!

We usually start his routine at like 7:00-7:30 :) some nights he will stay up till 10:00 but that is rare and when he does he will sleep until 6:00 before his first feeding

Thank you! What time do you usually start?

Not at all! My son has been sleeping through the night since 2 weeks old because we started a bedtime routine immediately! He sleeps from 9-5am every night it's amazing! We do bath time, lotion and jammies, eat, swaddle, and rock to sleep
