When did your EBF baby start sleeping through the night?

Question

I know it'll range but I'm just curious as to when other EBF babies started sleeping through the night or at least a solid 6+ hours. 
My LO is 6 weeks old and sleeps about 2-3 hours between feeds. The longest she's gone is about 4-5 hours but that was a rare occurrence.

Answer

My son was about 5 or 6 months when he cut out his middle of the night feed and started sleeping through. Then around 8 or 9 months he started waking frequently in the night again, not to nurse but just to assess his surroundings. That stopped probably around the time he was a year old. He's slept through the night since then (he's 2 now) but will wake up at night when he's teething (his last set of molars are coming in now).

Answer

12 weeks for me.  And out of my 3 he took the longest.  I've always try and not stir them at night.  They wake, I feed them and put them back into their bassinet.   I don't change wet diapers at night.   During the day I stimulate, talk, play and change them.  Seemed to help them adjust to night and day better.  Oh, and I always do baths at bedtime.  You can also try and play music for them or give them a lovie to help self soothe.   I kids never took a pacifier so I had to find something else.    Good luck!

Answer

My little guy was around 9-10 months when he would finally get 6-7 hour stretches, but sleep became way more consistent around a year and beyond!
