Is it ok for a baby (7 weeks) to sleep 6-7 hours at night ?

Question

Baby goes to sleep between 10pm and 11 and wakes up between 5 and 6 am to nurse and then every 1.5 -2 hrs in the day time until bed . Is it normal or is it ok for them to do that ?

Answer

Unless there’s an issue with your baby’s weight gain (not gaining enough), then just let your baby sleep. If baby is having 6+ wet diapers a day plus gaining weight, he’s getting enough to eat during the day so enjoy mama!

Answer

My pedi said to feed at 5 hrs until our LO hits 12 pounds- I guess it has something to do with how we’ll get regulate blood sugar.  Thankfully, she wakes up enough to eat and then conks right back out!

Answer

My boy was like this in he beginning. I miss those nights! 4 mo now and he’s up every hour...

Answer

Assuming your baby is gaining weight appropriately/plenty of wet/poopy diapers, that is perfectly fine!!  Enjoy the uninterrupted sleep 😊
