Question

Does it exist, exclusively breastfed babies who sleep through the night? What's the secret..? Asking for a friend 😩

Answer

Mine wants my boob every 2 hours... I want to sleep also. ☹️

Answer

I think they are as real as Santa or an unicorn 😂

Answer

I'm also ebf, my baby does a magic 5-6 hour sleep stretch once a month (but those nights my cat feels like she needs to compensate so she keeps me up the whole night instead 😾 ), but otherwise it's still feeding every 3 hours. I don't remember what sleep is anymore 🙈

Answer

Mine wil do 2-4 hour stretches. Either cold, gassy or genuine hunger. He usually goes back to sleep fairly easy though. But yeah, he always wakes up when I’m in that like super deep wonderful sleep, where I am literally swerving as I walk to his crib. But I do like the snuggles, and it is nice to feel needed all the time. But yeah I look in the mirror in the mornings and sometimes wonder if I will ever be pretty again!!! 😂 😂 😂

Answer

My son is EBF and used to sleep through the night until the dreaded 4 month sleep regression hit. Now he wakes anywhere from 1-3 times per night after he’s gone to bed. I try to only feed him once during the night and let my husband take the other times and just rock him to sleep. Sometimes I think he is maybe chilly or just wanting to cuddle. Other times he is inconsolable unless he eats so I know he’s truly hungry. I hope he gets back to sleeping again soon cause he’s whooping my butt 😩

Answer

My daughter will be 6 months at the end of the month and she gets up 1-2 times between 6:30/7pm to 6:30/7am to feed. Her longest stretch since 3.5 months has been 6 hours. We hit the 4 month regression and got teeth and that was the end of that. We introduced formula a week or so ago because I was t producing at bed time for a feed all the time ( 💁🏼‍♀️) but we’ve found it makes no difference in her wake ups. Maybe once they start solids?? Who know. Props to all those unicorn baby mamas what’s it like to get sleep🤣

Answer

My 5 month old son is EBF and sleeps 9:00pm to 6:00 or 7:00 am. My daughter is just 22 months older and was not this way at all. She woke to eat every 2-3 hours until she was almost a year. It was rough

Answer

My friends always bragged about their daughters sleeping through the night made me soo angry, like I was doing something wrong and eventually I just decided they were lying to me 😂 my twins woke every 3 hours until they were like 18 months. My third nursed all night long until a year when I had to wean for my sanity and he still woke for a bottle once or twice a night. But this baby my fourth and final baby does sleep through the night! Mind you not every night normally goes down at 9 and sleeps til 5 when I wake to feed her because my boobs are exploding. Sometimes she wakes at 1 to feed and then I let her sleep til 6ish when I need to feed to get ready for work on time. It’s about 50/50. But I honestly think every baby is just different I’m not doing anything different with her then I did with the other 3 🤷‍♀️ I wish I had a secret to tell you but good luck and this is a very short time in their life. Grab sleep whenever you can

Answer

My guy night weaned himself around 3mo, he had two feeds for a while then dropped down to one and that one kept getting later until he was making it till the morning. He nurses on demand during the day so he gets 5-7 feeds usually during the daytime

Answer

Mine has slept through the night (8-7) twice. He usually wakes up between 2-5 to feed. But the two nights he did sleep all night the next couple of nights were horrible because he was playing catch up from missing the overnight feed. 😫
