How long of a stretch will your baby sleep at night?

Question

From the time they actually fall asleep until they wake up next. Do you feed right away when they wake in the night or do you try to resettle?

Answer

3-5hrs formula fed. 😭 he won’t sleep during the day either unless I’m holding him.

Answer

Usually 3-5 hours. She’s had a couple 7 hour stretches. I get her and feed her as soon as she starts fussing. If I wait until it’s an actual cry, it takes much longer to soothe her.

Answer

When he start fussing and I see him awake and about to cry. I pick him up and feed him

Answer

I let her fuss until it’s an actual cry/scream. Then feed.

Answer

Mine will sleep when I sleep. So I go to bed at about 10pm , give a feed and go straight to sleep. He sleeps until 3:30 all the time, as I have him in that routine, he doesn’t feel the need to wake any earlier or later, but bang on 3:30am lol so he knows he’s due for a feed and won’t fuss at all. He just makes cooing sounds haha. So I feed him and we go back to sleep and he wakes at 7:30am. So he sleeps for about 5hrs then another 3 . It’s great. Mines not much of a fusser actually. He’s never actually cried at all and he’s 11 weeks

Answer

10 hour stretches every night. 
I EBF with the exception of one bottle of expressed milk before bed. This helps him sleep longer.
I breastfeed for the last time around 830-930pm, and then change him and swaddle him. Then I give him a bottle of 4-5oz of breast milk and let him drink as much as he’d like. Sometimes he finishes and sometimes he’ll
just snack. 
Then he’s out from 9:45/10pm until 7:45/8am! My little champ.

Answer

9 weeks old, usually get one long 4 hour stretch at night in the beginning then 2.5-3 hour stretches after that but sometimes she will still get fussy for whatever reason and wake after 2.

Answer

My little one isn't a great napper in the day! I'm sometimes lucky if I can get two hours out of her! (her brother was the same so starting to get a nap routine in place to help) 
So recently she's been asleep by 7 and she stirs around early morning (4/5ish)... I only feed her if she's wide awake or really kicking off, then she goes back off within half an hour and goes until 8ish.
If she naps better and goes down for 8/9 she normally sleeps through 👍

Answer

She is so inconsistent. But usually she gives us anywhere from 5-7 hours. The 5 hours stretches are typically more common though. She goes to between 930-1030 pm and wakes anywhere from 3-430 am. It’s kind of frustrating because she obviously can go the 7 hours but she just doesn’t very often and we have the same routine every night. Typically I try to let her go for a minute or two when she starts fussing to see if she will fall back asleep or if she’s going to stay up and want to eat. If she just fusses some I let her go but if she starts full blown crying I get up and feed her.

Answer

This is my amazing sleeper baby - my other two were not this great.  I’m EBF so if I wake up and it’s been a while and baby is fussing - I feed him.  (I usually need him to eat too 😂) My other two slept much short stretches so I’d try to settle them first but this one sleeps so much he needs to get a little food when he wakes up.
