We accidentally slept through our alarms those couple of times! He was a late preterm so we didn't want him to go more than 4 hours without a feeding. </p> <p>Now that he's 6.5lbs and consistently takes more than the calculated minimum he needs to gain weight, we let him go 5 between his two nighttime feedings. </p> <p>I think once we hit 10 pounds, we may let him dictate his schedule a bit more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-775015 Sat, 11 May 2013 10:10:01 +0000 ALV91711 775015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 7 week old is just about 13.5 lbs and hasn't slept for more than 4 hours yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-769225 Thu, 09 May 2013 07:46:02 +0000 ValentineMommy 769225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If 5 hours is STTN, my LO did that at 3 weeks old.

I just looked at his baby book. He was 16 lbs. at the time. I think we had the clearance to CIO with him sooner, but we didn't. I think we were lucky if we got 5-6 hours out of him at a go around 4-5 months. I remember those being rare until we did sleep training. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-766612 Tue, 07 May 2013 20:53:46 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 766612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ooo let's say he started at month 11 (no sleep training) so he was around 20 pounds. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-766597 Tue, 07 May 2013 20:48:07 +0000 winniebee 766597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He has done it off and on since 3 months - he was only 10 lens then. We got to 10 hrs when healthy when he was 6 months and he never really sleeps more than 10 hrs at night. He was about 13.5 lbs then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-766519 Tue, 07 May 2013 20:08:06 +0000 fancyfunction 766519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine was around 3 months, so I'd say she was about 10 lbs. I don't have the exact weight but she was 12 lbs at her 4 month checkup. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-766507 Tue, 07 May 2013 20:00:01 +0000 oliviaoblivia 766507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>L came home STTN of six or more hours.

That was awhile ago.... like 4 months old??</p> <p>But actual 10-12 hours at night? a year old. Though he did for a month at 6 months, and a week here and there until he was a year but now it's consistent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-766501 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:54:07 +0000 shopaholic 766501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been told 10lbs was a magical number, and K did start STTN (5 hours) for most nights since we've hit that number! I won't say it's every night yet, but we are probably still hovering around 10-11lbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-766495 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:48:23 +0000 Smurfette 766495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: I read that 5 hours is technically STTN </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-766493 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:47:54 +0000 autumnlove 766493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: I heard more than 6 at night? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-your-lo-weigh-when-they-started-to-sttn#post-766488 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:41:38 +0000 Periwinkle 766488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are at about 16 lbs and not even close to STTN (by any definition!!!!) </p>
