My 6 week old slept last night from midnight and was still sleeping but starting to stir at 8am. Is this too long for his age?
After her regained his birth weight the midwife said he was big enough to not have to wake for feeds every 4 hour, but this was when he was sleeping 5 hour stretch, whereas last night he went 8 hour

Nothing to worry about unless you see other worrying symptoms. This was about when my son started sleeping through the night (only lasted about 2 months 🥲).

I wish my 5 week old can start to do whole night sleeps like yours soon!
Are you ebf? Pediatrician and lactation consultant repeatedly tell me we cannot control sleep but as long as baby looks satisfied after nursing and having plenty of wet and dirty diapers they should be ok! Periodically checking their weight gain and confirm it’s in the right trajectory is also a good idea
