How many hours do you sleep at night? Continuous or interrupted?

Question

I have been having sleep issues since pregnancy, like peeing every hour, or being sick or heartburn or just hungry!
After baby was born, feeds at night or back pain initially didn't let me sleep. Now I still comfort nurse 3-5 times a night ranging from 5-10 mins.
I am craving a full night's sleep. I just had 1 single night's uninterrupted sleep when baby was 1 month old.
Moms, what are you doing to get a good night's sleep?

Answer

I can relate! My girl has had about 4 nights total in 9 months that she has slept right through. Two of those, I had a terrible sleep anyway and woke up myself multiple times. Usually she's asleep 8pm - 11pm, feed, 11:30pm - 4:00am, feed, then up at 7am. 
To make matters worse, I have insomnia. It sometimes takes me a few hours to fall asleep, it seems like every time I'm on the brink of finally falling asleep, she wakes up. I probably get about 4-5 hours total sleep (1am-4am, 5am-7am). 
My baby is breastfed so I handle all the night wakings. I think my husband has done maybe 5 since she was born (rocking her back to sleep, which only half the time works and then I have to go in to feed her), and that's only during particularly rough nights when I have already woke up 3-4 times and start getting frustrated, so I'm awake anyway. :( I know I should night wean her, but it's so hard. 😴😭

Answer

Can you pump and ask daddy to wake up and feed baby once or twice in a night and do this once a week? You need a break!! I’m very fortunate my baby is back to sleeping through the night after 3 months of waking up so now I am getting 5-7 hours per night 🙌🏼

Answer

I used to get a continuous sleep but my daughter has been waking up in the middle of the night the past week.

Answer

It was continuous until LO was about 6 months old then he stopped waking twice a night then dropped to once and now it's very rare I get woken up between him sleeping from 7pm-7/8am... I go to bed around 11pm. But still check his video monitor a couple of times in AM. I doubt that's going to change until hes grown and left the house 😆
I started putting him in his own room a few nights before Christmas so he would've been 4 months. He loved being in his own room and not getting woken up with his dads snoring or me tossing and turning.
Made sure to get blackout blinds and curtains. 
It's all trial and error 🤷‍♀️
