What do you do for long night stretch?

First off, never thought I’d have this problem because I’d pretty much accepted the idea that I’d be waking up at a max of 3 hours sleep to feed for the rest of his baby life 😂 I kept thinking that breastfed babies aaaalways need to eat by 3-4 hours.

I’m realizing how quickly they grow and change through each stage (and how all the leaps from birth to 8 weeks plus establishing supply required that initial around the clock feeding, but that babies will, actually sleep longer night stretches at one point).

He’s 9+ weeks old. He shockingly slept 6 hours at night 4x in the past week. He has done a 3-4 hr “long stretch” with another 2 hr one since birth, sometimes waking every 2 hrs in the beginning. Pediatrician said at this age, I don’t need to wake anymore- feed if he’s hungry, and let him sleep when he’s sleeping.

Do you wake to pump in the middle of the night or let yourself sleep? If you allow yourself to sleep a 5-6 hr stretch, has it affected your supply, or has your body realized it can “sleep” at night, or has it caused clogged ducts? I’m deciding if I should sleep or pump. I slept through accidentally the first time, set an alarm for 3am (yay for the amazing production at 3am, right?!), and let myself sleep the third night. Every time was fine- no clogged ducts, able to sleep. I don’t want to do something stupid by sleeping like cause clogged ducts, or decrease supply. And I know it’s an opportunity to pump and save more, and I think it keeps signaling the body to produce. Or do our bodies figure out a longer night stretch of sleep is okay? I honestly don’t know what women do with this situation. Lastly, he woke last night at 3am. So good thing I didn’t pump!!!!! I know I could give give him the pumped milk, but then I’m like, do I go put it in the fridge or keep in by the bed for a couple hours and then set an alarm to put it in the fridge if he sleeps longer....... oy vey. It’s like a science.

Thanks in advance!!
