My boy, 5 weeks old, has been sleeping really well through the night but woke up this morning with a dry nappy so I tickled his tummy with a wipe and he did a wee but it was not much and had the tiniest bit of urate crystals. I'll be contacting hv at 9 but does anyone have any suggestions? Should I be waking him for a night feed?
He slept 10:30pm till 5am which is great but I'm worried it's dehydrating him. Anyone had a similar experience?

I would probably wake in this situation. My last baby slept really well like this but continued to have full nappies. I would have woken her if her nappies were dry at this age. It’s not a problem I have to think about this time around with my big hungry boy 😂

I would feed him at least once during the night? Unless it’ll be hard for him to sleep again?

Wow well done to him for sleeping so well! Is he getting enough feeds during the day? I would also wake him if it’s a consistent issue
