My girl is 3.5 weeks and she SOMETIMES sleeps for 6 hours at night. Usually about 4 and sometimes 5 but I let her sleep.

We let our little man sleep since like a week old. He eats a ton during the day and has gained 2lb in a month so I'm not worried. His sister we had to wake but she was born early and at 5lb6oz and just didn't really care about eating. Felt like we had to force her and even then she hardly gained any weight. It just depends on the baby.

I feel you on being tired. It's very hard yet rewarding.

Thanks for the advice ladies. I just wanted other mamas advice on what you all do :) I'm gonna see how long she can sleep tonight without me waking her. We are both so tired from waking up constantly to feed

They told me at the hospital to let her sleep. (Which I would've anyway, I did the same with my first.) I was concerned because I'm new to the breast feeding thing and she went six hours her second day with waking. I even tried to wake her, stripped her down, skin to skin, tickled her, made her uncomfy. Nothing worked. But nope, they said she was fine! Get your sleep while you can momma!

After 2 weeks it's ok to let them sleep through the night.

Never wake a sleeping baby... My sister slept right through from two weeks! I wish my little man slept through, he's nearly a month and still up every 1-2 hours for 4oz -_- tired much ?

I never woke my daughter to eat from the time she came home from hospital. She has slept from between 8-10pm until 5-7am

My doctor said let them sleep at night but wake him every 3 hrs to nurse during the day. Congrats to you that your lo is sleeping so well already! ??

I never woke my kids up. No point, if they're hungry they will wake up. My doctor saw nothing wrong with it bc they gained weight on time

Let her sleep and try to relax if she's past birth weight. You are about to go thru a growth spurt.

I would definitely let her sleep. Maybe not more than like 6 hours but that's great. Wish mind would do that at night. Mine wakes up like clock work lol

If only!! My little fat piggy wakes up every 2-3 hours to nurse. Be happy your baby sleeps :p

As soon as they are back up to their birth weight our dr gave me the ok to let them sleep.

After the first week my doc said to let him sleep. I would still wake him if he went near 5 hours but now he is 7 weeks and sleeps 4-6 at nighttime!
