Previously was up every 2-3. No super long stretches of 5+ until 11ish weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111349 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 09:35:48 +0000 Raspberry 2111349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 6 weeks he started going 5 hours occasionally which progressed quickly from there. Since 10 or 11 weeks he has been sleeping from 10 to 7 nightly, but he's only 16 weeks now so we haven't hit any sleep regressions yet... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111309 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 09:17:53 +0000 ellewoods84 2111309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After 5 months when we sleep trained for going to sleep. She would have a long stretch then. Eeek. Prior to that....3 hour stretches were miracles. It was hard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111300 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 09:13:36 +0000 Mamasig 2111300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both my boys stretched their sleep past 3 hours at about 8 weeks. They started to go about 5 hours then. By 12 weeks when I went back to work, DS1 only had one wake up. DS2 still had 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111294 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 09:08:55 +0000 namaste 2111294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stopped waking her up after she was cleared at week one. She's slept for 5+ hours ever since. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111278 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:59:39 +0000 Anagram 2111278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LAZB: lucky! I didn't have a choice. My LO has been an early-to-bed, early-to-rise girl since day 1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111274 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:56:48 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2111274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been really lucky<br /> Both girls have slept 5-6 hours from week one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111273 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:56:24 +0000 LAZB 2111273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 2 weeks she started having one stretch of 4-4.5 hours. Now at 5 weeks she has not done that for a few days :(<br /> @Anagram: we aren't putting L down until around 10 because the first stretch is the longest and I want to sleep as much as possible haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111249 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:42:15 +0000 Anagram 2111249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO started sleeping a first stretch of 6-7 hours around 2 months old....BUT right after she turned 3 months, she hit the "4th month regression" early and started waking up every 2 hours and that lasted for months and months and months until we sleep trained (more than once) when she was around 7 months old.</p> <p>Also, that first stretch was something like 7pm-1am (on a great day, 2 am) and I was totally off my own normal sleep schedule and was having insomnia issues, so most nights I wouldn't fall asleep till 11-12 am, and then LO would be up an hour later. =( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111215 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:29:42 +0000 Mae 2111215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always had to wake lo to eat. When I stopped waking her at 4 weeks she was sleeping 5+ hrs. But don't worry, I got mine when she hit 4mo. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111193 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:19:32 +0000 regberadaisy 2111193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD2 is 6.5m and still does not do that consistently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111189 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:14:51 +0000 catlady 2111189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to say 6 or 8 weeks. She could do a 4-5 stretch for the first part of the night at that point. Then 4 month regression hit at 12 weeks and that went away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111186 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:13:21 +0000 blackbird 2111186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the NICU trained her to sleep 3 hour stretches because she was a 3 hour set-your-watch-by-it kind of newborn </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111185 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:12:04 +0000 illumina 2111185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think around 2 weeks old. It's all a bit of a blur, but I know she gradually stretched it out and was sleeping 8 hours at 5 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111184 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:11:33 +0000 Peasinapod 2111184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 months.... Sleep is not her strong suit :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/newborn-sleep-4#post-2111180 Tue, 17 Mar 2015 08:10:25 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2111180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When did your baby start stretching night time sleep longer than 3 hours? I know all babies are different, but I'm curious! :) </p>
