Baby sleeping long stretches
I need some advice from mums on this.
My baby eats at around 9-10pm at night then goes to bed. I dream feed her around 12-1 she then sleeps through until 6-7am.
She is 6 weeks old but has been doing this for a good 10-14 days now.
When I google this or watch TikTok they tell me I should be waking my baby to feed her in the night.
Is this true.
She seems happy and is gaining weight.

I've never woken any of mine once they're back past their birth weight!
As long as she’s past birth weight don’t worry at all, and you could probably drop the dream feed as well if you wanted.
My boy has done big stretches at night from early days, I was worried as my first didn’t do that but the health visitors said to leave him to sleep when we past the weight and he will do between 10-12hrs from last feed to morning. I’m sure it won’t last so I’m taking it for now 😊
I don’t wake or dream feed my boys as long as they’re gaining weight that’s all that matters
I agree. I also have the same worry and my daughter is same age as yours. Never woke her up for any sleep. She just drink a lot of BM when she’s awake :)
