Breastfeeding moms. How many times at night does your baby woke up to eat?

Question

My daughter is 5 weeks old. I feed her at 8pm then she wakes up around 11pm to eat. After that 2am, and 5-6am. I wonder when she will be able to sleep longer since breastfed babies eat so often.

Answer

She's 2 and still wakes every 2 hours.

Answer

My daughter is 6 months and currently goes down at 8:30, it takes an hour to put her down. She wakes at 10, 12, 2, 4 and then usually every hour after that until 7:30am. Sometimes on a goodnight she'll do a long stretch from 10 until 2 and sometimes I can just nurse her and she'll go right back to sleep... but like last night she wouldn't go back down after 2... so I was up with her from 2 until 6. So all I'm saying is... enjoy how much sleep you're getting... that's a lot of sleep and not much wakings at that age.

Answer

My 9 month old wakes 4 times a night, she's in the middle of a sleep regression.. 2-3 times was normal before

Answer

That's pretty normal. Most kids just slow down on their own slowly. The key is to make sure that she is feeding because she is hungry and not for comfort.

Answer

My son is four months and wakes up once maybe twice a night. Normally it's once but he is going through a leap of development so sometimes he's fussy (I don't believe in regressions since leaps are proven).

Answer

My 6 month old is typically up twice

Answer

My baby is exclusively breastfed. She woke up every 3 hours at your babies age. Then it eventually stretched to every 4 hours. Then right at 10 weeks, she started sleeping thru the night (usually 10p to 7a). I woke up to pump once when she first started sleeping thru the night. She's currently 4.5 months and still sleeps thru the night with those same hours. I don't wake up to pump in the middle of the night anymore.

Answer

Mine is 18 weeks and goes to bed at 930/10, wakes up 6-7. He typically wakes up 2-3 times a night and I nurse him but I think most of that is more for comfort than hunger. He's just going through the sleep regression so I'm starting to train him to self  smooth and will then wean him off the breast for when I go back to work 😢

Answer

My baby is almost 5 months old and eats 4-5, sometimes 6 times in a 12 hour period at night. But I'm not sleep deprived and don't mind so 🤷🏼‍♀️ Congrats on your bundle. And props to you for nursing that little one, mama!
