I think I forgot what it is LOL!

As an infant 0-6 months was your LO a good sleeper?

If not, when did they get "better" (I don't necessarily mean sleeping thru the night, I mean just sleeping 4-5 hours at once)?

At what age did your LO start sleeping through the night?

At what age did your LO start sleeping through the night? At about 4-6 weeks old she started sleeping through the night, she didnt start waking up at night until she started teething but it will maybe be 3 nights in a row then she is back to sleeping through the night again.

We got lucky, Caiden was a great sleeper, and slept through the night at about 2 months.

In the beginning, we co-slept (did for almost a year), and I was nursing. So when he woke up hungry I'd lay on my side and sleep, and he'd eat. I didn't feel sleep deprived because I was still sleeping!

I hope you start getting som rest!!

What am I do wrong?? LOL! I tried breastfeeding and I wish I could've kept up with it. My supply needed work due to me having a breast reduction 5 yrs ago. I could've done it had I put tons of effort into it but w/ my csection I was in too much pain that first week to put in the extra work needed

Morgan slept for 4-5 hours when we brought her home, she would wake once, then sleep again for another 4-5 hours

some kids just sleep worse then others, I have a friend who has a 2.5 year old and had another baby last week, and the older kid gets up more then the new baby. You will either get used to it or he will settle into a routine soon enough.

When hes awake does he cry or just is awake

Not really. For the first two months or so, he'd wake up about every 2-3 hours. From about two months to 6 months he finally started sleeping a bit more, but I'd say we averaged at least two to three times waking up during the night. Oh yeah, we also co-slept together until about 4 1/2 months when he started to sleep in his crib.

If not, when did they get "better" (I don't necessarily mean sleeping thru the night, I mean just sleeping 4-5 hours at once)?
He didn't fully start sleeping 4-5 hours at once until he was about 6 1/2 months old, I think.

At what age did your LO start sleeping through the night?
If I'm remembering right, about 11 months I think. Somewhere around there, anyway. It's been so long I can't really remember!

Both. 75% calm & looking around either playing with me or chilling in his swing. He other 25% he's fussing cause he's bored/tired or whatever. Unless he's having a fussy day.. then it can be reversed lol.. 75% crying.. 25% calm. He was really colicky from 3 weeks till about a week ago & now he's getting better. Thank God

As an infant 0-6 months was your LO a good sleeper? Taylor-Not at all, she was a HORRIBLE sleeper. Rylie- AMAZING sleeper

If not, when did they get "better" (I don't necessarily mean sleeping thru the night, I mean just sleeping 4-5 hours at once)? Taylor started sleeping 4-5 hours at a time around 5 or 6 months of age. Rylie- I cosleep and when she wakes up hungry I do side lying nursing and sleep straight through it anyway. She already sleeps 4-6 hour stretches as it is.

At what age did your LO start sleeping through the night? Taylor- 9 months, not sure what Rylie will be yet

Seamus- He was up every 2-3hrs if I remember right

Kieran sleeps for around 4hrs at a time at night, she was sleeping 6-8hrs a night at 5days old but around 2weeks we had to break her because it was a big factor in her weight loss


At what age did your LO start sleeping through the night?

Seamus started around 10ish months for around 7-9hours. Hes now 34months and sleeps for around 12hrs a night but very very hard to get him to nap

Alyssa started sleeping 4-5 hours at a time at about 2 weeks and through the night at about 2 months.. Rylan slept about 4-5 hours at a time at about 3 weeks and started sleeping through (most nights) a couple of weeks ago.

I've been VERY lucky.

All 3 kids werent that good of sleepers! Savannah is 2 and still wakes up in hte middle of the night, but comforts herself and goes back to sleep. Ricky was about 2.5 when he started sleeping the whole night. And Javier is 9 1/2 months and some nights are good and hell sleep the whole night and other nights I think I have a newborn again getting up every 2-3 hours.
