LO is sleeping for just 1 to 2 hours at a time at night. I know every baby is different but I was hoping she would get longer stretches in at this point!
My husband takes her for a few hours at the beginning of every night which helps me get a few hours of guaranteed sleep.
How much sleep does your LO get in at night?

Mine sleeps 4 hrs wakes up, eat and then back to sleep for 3 hrs but she’s also eating 4 oz like a boss 💀 are you breast feeding or formula because I know breast milk has less calories so they’re hungrier more often

I had a similar problem. My girl kept falling asleep while breastfeeding so she wasn't eating until she was full and waking up a lot. We started using bottles at night and that helped a lot! She gets 3.5 oz per feeding now and sleeps a good 3-4 hours at night being more full.

3-4ish hours, but my first baby was up nearly every hour or 2, so I understand that exhaustion

I say give it some time, my LO is 7w almost 8w, and we’re now getting 3-4 hours

mine also falls asleep while breastfeeding, sometimes it’s a struggle to wake her up. Trying a bottle is a good idea!

she did one 3 hour stretch the other night and it was amazing lol. I’m hoping she starts doing that more often

good to know, when I’m having a rough night I just tell myself it will get better

3-5 hours. When it's 5 hours he Wakes up starving, thought..

Mine sleeps anywhere from 30 mins to maybe 2 hours once in awhile when we are lucky. We’ve tried everything. He’s 5 weeks old. We are on different sleeping schedules but we won’t be able to do that much longer so I don’t know how we are going to survive.

@Hope he always has been a good sleeper but lately we've been doing more of a routine. We feed him when he Wakes up from his last nap. We then change him and chill for as Long as he's awake. When he starts showing signs of being tired, we change again, put the sleep sack on (we use halo in the crib at night only), then turn the lights off. I sing to him for about 20 min while my husband taps his belly. I then rock him for about 10 more minutes (he's already asleep) and relocate him to his crib. Sometimes he shows signs of being hungry again so I dream feed him. Sometimes he doesn't, he went 6 hours between night feeds before.

My little guy is 5weeks. We do our bedtime feed around 7:30/8 then lights out for him to sleep. We do a dream feeding around 11:30/12 and then right back to sleep. Then wake up around 5/5:30 to start our day.
We have a reflux problem so he only eats 2oz at a time, we feed every 3 hours during the day and try to keep him awake for about an hour to hour and a half after feedings during the day so that he is sleepier at night.

3-4 hours and sleeps from 8:15pm to about 7:30 am

I just upped my girls food, she’s weeks and eats between 4-5 oz now so I wake up once in the middle of the night usually 1 or 2am depending on if I feed her at 8 or 9 pm. (She was combo fed, now I just feed formula)
