Ways to get 3 month old to sleep thru night ?

Question

What are some ways I can get my almost 3 month old to sleep thru the night ? She is breast milk bottle fed and I just started to supplement with formula (half formula half breast milk) on a regular this week since she will be going to daycare in a few weeks .. but she still wakes up every two hours to be fed. What can I do to get her to sleep thru the night ? Because I will be going back to work very soon. I need some tips.

Answer

You can’t really do anything if she is waking up to feed. You could try to settle her to sleep without feeding and she may start to stay asleep for longer stretches. But at this age there is not much you should do.

Answer

Not gonna happen.  They will go through growth spurts, cluster feedings and sleep regressions. They are still very young and still adjusting to the outside world

Answer

It's totally developmentally normal and necessary for babies to wake in the night to eat, sometimes up to a year depending on the kid since they're constantly going through growth spurts, etc. Something that helped me get more sleep was having my husband give him a bottle with his first waking and then I'd handle the rest (nursing). This allowed me to get a good chunk of sleep at the start of the night which over time got longer as he got older.

Answer

Sleep is developmental, like walking. They do it when they’re ready. You could try upping her bottles in the daytime because there is a little correlation, but that’s about it if she’s waking to feed.

Answer

Feed more during the day so she doesn’t need as much at night. Other than that it’s developmental and you have to wait until bub is ready

Answer

Make sure he is taking good naps during the day but not linger than 2 hours

Answer

We followed the Moms On Call program with our kids. They slept through the night by 3-4 months of age.
