Should you wake a sleeping baby for feeds? First night home and she had her last feed at 1am, woke for another at 5:30 and then Charlie got me up at 8 and baby was still sleeping 🙈 I was expecting to be up all night like at the hospital 🤣

I agree until shes above her birthweight id wake her maybe every 4hrs max. Then you can feed on demand evie will be as tired as you are lovely and when I had my first id had morphine I found he was extra sleepy after that and midwife said due to the drugs id had but after 3 or 4 days he was alert but either way she will let you know for sure.

May be an unpopular opinion but i didn't wake either of mine 😅.. I valued the sleep! Neither of them dropped below their birth weight though so I didn't feel the need

I agree. I was always told not to wake them. They'll wake you when they are hungry.

Me too, never wake a sleeping baby!. Unless for a reason like a lot of weight lost etc but aside from that I never woke any of my 3. Xx

I was told they’ll wake when they’re hungry. I used to let them sleep.
Unless they’re under birth weight or whatever then wake but enjoy your sleep xxx

Yeah I’ve always been told to not wake a sleeping baby unless a lot of weight has been lost since birth, she will deffo let you know if she’s hungry as you already probably know😂 hope your feeling well and a massive congratulations💖

Same here, I've left both of mine to sleep and they've woke when hungry. They both slept through the night from 7pm-7am from 2 weeks old so musn't have been that bad xx

I never woke Sophia up I fed when she woke up. She was a really sleepy baby so I was lucky she was sleeping through within a couple weeks. She is so beautiful xxx
