It’s normal, as long as he’s gaining weight and still plenty of wet / dirty nappies there’s nothing to worry about. Take the rest while it’s there 😊 x

Totally normal. Enjoy it and hope it lasts! My little girl was doing this at that ages and now she is not 😅 as above, as long as their nappies are fine and they are gaining weight there’s nothing to worry about ☺️

My baby is only 8 days old and we are often getting 4-5 hour stretches at night! I think as long as they are still feeding enough and getting enough wees and poos it’s fine!

Both of my kids did this around 2-3 months. One turned into an extremely challenging sleeper, one less so lol but the youngest is 13 months and still waking at night. Sleep is a roller coaster! Nothing to be concerned about though.
