Should I wake up my 4-week old to feed at night?

Question

My baby cluster feeds during the daytime and at night she’s out cold and hard to wake up to feed every 3 hours. Should I let her sleep longer? How long are the sleep stretches you do with a 1-month old baby?

Answer

If she’s already past birth weight then definitely let her sleep ! My baby is 5 months and since 5 weeks she eats every 2-3 hours in the day and sleeps 8-9 at night! Let baby sleep, you enjoy the rest

Answer

I've always woke my baby in day for feed  it let them sleep at night and only feed when they wake, all my kids slept the whole night from 6 weeks I guess it worked to get them into a routine

Answer

As long as she continues gaining weight there is no need. My daughter slept through the night at 4 weeks, she continued to gain weight and was(still is) 90th percentile. I did not wake her. It’s your decision.
