Should I be waking my baby up?

Question

My baby is 11 days old for the past few nights he has been going down at 22:00, and been sleeping through until about 5/6am. Should I be waking him up for a feed between this time or should I leave him? I thought if he was hungry he will let me know!

Answer

Usually doctors tell you to wake them if they are not gaining weight or losing weight my son slept a lot and still does he sleeps 4hrs at a time aylt night. My doctor just said he would pick up extra feedings in the day to make up for it he eats every 2hrs during the day time.

Answer

As long as your baby is gaining I wouldn’t wake them. Consider yourself very lucky! My baby has only slept 5 hours straight one time in 3 weeks. Enjoy the rest!!

Answer

Curious to know where your baby sleeps? My baby only sleeps that long in my arms.

Answer

As long as he’s gaining weight, I would let him sleep
