My baby has never slept longer than 5 hours, and that’s rare. I planned to start serious sleep training Monday (my Friday). She goes to bed in her own room from wide awake and falls asleep fine for bedtime and naps, but is up every 2-3 hours at almost 7 months old.

HOWEVER- last night baby slept from 9;00pm until 5:00am. She’s never even come close to this. The only thing I can think of that was different about yesterday was that I didn’t have a lot of breast milk to send to daycare so she had mostly formula all day (usually has 1 bottle of formula while I’m at work).

Could this have been the reason? I would be sad to stop breastfeeding but the lack of sleep is taking a huge toll on my family. Does anyone have a similar experience with switching to formula, or did anyone’s LO (little one) suddenly start sleeping through and maybe it was just a coincidence??
