STTN at that age is the exception, it is not typical. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/almost-12-week-old-waking-3-times-a-night-to-feednormal-or-not#post-536766 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:53:59 +0000 MsLipGloss 536766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NovBaby1112: Every baby is different . . . and I think sometimes the hours of sleep a night might be rounded up. It also seems like definitions of STTN vary, so just take it all with a grain of salt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/almost-12-week-old-waking-3-times-a-night-to-feednormal-or-not#post-536758 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:52:09 +0000 Mrsbells 536758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally normal. my 9 month old still wakes up at night to eat </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/almost-12-week-old-waking-3-times-a-night-to-feednormal-or-not#post-536749 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:48:00 +0000 NovBaby1112 536749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>thank you everyone for making me feel better! ive been thinking something I was doing was wrong since I see so many moms with LOs the same age who are doing 8-12 hours at night with no wakeups! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/almost-12-week-old-waking-3-times-a-night-to-feednormal-or-not#post-536743 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:45:57 +0000 twinmama 536743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Normal. My kids still woke a lot at that age. DD now sleeps through with an occasional feed and DS still wakes 3x to eat at 6 months. We didn't and probably won't night train. Every kid is just different. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/almost-12-week-old-waking-3-times-a-night-to-feednormal-or-not#post-536739 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:44:33 +0000 yellowbird 536739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Normal. My LOs sleep is still all over the place despite strict routines and putting we down at 7-7:30!</p> <p>She will randomly sleep through the night once a week. The other days she usually goes from 7:30-1, then is up every two hours after that! Ugh!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/almost-12-week-old-waking-3-times-a-night-to-feednormal-or-not#post-536730 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:41:19 +0000 MsLipGloss 536730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally normal. My almost 5 month old does that now. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/almost-12-week-old-waking-3-times-a-night-to-feednormal-or-not#post-536726 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:40:44 +0000 T.H.O.U. 536726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds normal. Just what we went through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/almost-12-week-old-waking-3-times-a-night-to-feednormal-or-not#post-536723 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:39:52 +0000 duckduckkristen 536723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's normal! Could be a growth spurt. My LO would sttn for awhile, then stop for awhile, then do it again for awhile. It's a constant battle for most people I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/almost-12-week-old-waking-3-times-a-night-to-feednormal-or-not#post-536693 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 13:29:32 +0000 NovBaby1112 536693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my almost 12 week old is still waking up 3 times a night to feed....i feel like I am doing something wrong as I am seeing so many moms with LOs the same age or younger sleeping for 8+ hours a night! we have a bedtime routine and put her down around 7/7:30pm, and then she proceeds to wake at 10-11ish, 2-3ish, and then again at 5-6ish...and then sleeps until 730/8. </p> <p>I am just so confused because when she was 6 weeks old she would sleep from 10pm to 4am and then again until 730! it seems like she slept longer when she had a later bedtime, but I am going back to work in a few weeks and would like to keep the earlier bedtime (plus i heard somewhere that babies sleep better and longer with an earlier bedtime). but that doesnt seem to be the case with us. </p> <p>is this normal or am i the only one??? when will her sleep improve? i try to get her to eat more throughout the day, but when she is not hungry I cannot force her. when she wakes at night, she does seem hungry though, and eats a good amount from one side, so I am reluctant to let her cry or anything like that...is there anything I can do to wean her from at least 1 of those feeds?? </p>
