My LO slept thru the night for the very first time at exactly two months old and I know what you mean. When I woke up to light outside and no baby crying, I freaked out at first and ran to check on her. She was fine and I was confused! Then she kept on doing it except for a few nights here and there until a few weeks ago. Now she's up at 430 to nurse every night. Enjoy it while it lasts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-197782 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 18:21:07 +0000 Rubies 197782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You are soooooooooooooo lucky. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-197769 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 18:15:57 +0000 sandy 197769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes let her sleep :)</p> <p>My LO was EBF and was sleeping 6-8 hour stretches at 2 months and soon after was going 8-10 hour stretches and finally 12 hour stretches by 3 months...breastfed babies can STTN :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-197650 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 16:13:43 +0000 Mommy Finger 197650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I slept through the night the first night I came home from the hospital and then every night after I was 2 weeks old. Trust me, I'm fine and am banking on good sleeping karma for when my LO is born in November. The only time I would wake a sleeping baby is if s/he were sleeping for long stretches during the day so they don't confuse day/night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196276 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 12:55:51 +0000 Charcole2011 196276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have kids yet, but my mom has always talked about how I slept through the night literally the first night I was born until the nurse woke me up to feed...I was almost 10 pounds at birth and so after that night my mom asked her dr. if I slept all night again did I have to be woken, and he said definitely not! I turned out just fine =-) So I would think as PPs have said, no need to wake a sleeping baby unless your dr. tells you they need that nighttime feeding! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196265 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 12:46:43 +0000 BeachMama 196265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree... as long as shes gaining weight and healthy, let her sleep. My 4 week old has gone 5-6 hrs on occasion. Its so difficult getting her down that theres no way I want to wake her! I figure she'll wake up if she's hungry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196230 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 12:07:22 +0000 Sammyfab 196230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO slept a 7 hour stretch at 7 weeks (average was 5 at that time) but we started putting him to bed at 8pm at 4 weeks so it wasn't technically sleeping through the night. I was ecstatic though and I had to relieve my breasts by hand expressing in the sink!</p> <p>Next time, definitely don't wake her up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196219 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:59:56 +0000 skibobrown 196219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I would definitely let her sleep. My daughter was sleeping for long stretches by 2 months, and it was complete bliss! Now at 2.5 months her only nighttime wake up is happening around 5 AM. I'm hoping that she stretches out her sleep by another hour or two soon, at which point I will be able to get a full uninterrupted night of sleep finally! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196214 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:55:56 +0000 mrs. wagon 196214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>never wake a sleeping baby!!! :D unless your pedi tells you to because she's underweight!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196213 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:55:46 +0000 mrsjazz 196213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't wake her! That's awesome. The longest stretch I've had was 6 hours on Tuesday. It was great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196212 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:55:27 +0000 MamaMoose 196212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never wake a sleeping baby!! My husband started sleeping through the night at 4 weeks. I'm praying this kid comes out just like it's daddy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196202 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:48:54 +0000 regberadaisy 196202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ohmygod I would not wake her either!</p> <p>The one night LO slept for 5 hours straight and I was shocked! I think it was last week (6 weeks old) and I did a double take at the clock!</p> <p>Here's hoping a full nights sleep is in my future too! :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196165 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:28:53 +0000 Mrsbells 196165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh ok thats great.. Hopefully she keeps it up because last was the best nights sleep I've had since before I was pregnant!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196153 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:22:59 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 196153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't wake a sleeping baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196143 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:18:22 +0000 autumnlove 196143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! My LO started sleeping through the night around eight weeks and she started eating a lot more in the afternoon and evenings! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196142 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:18:00 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 196142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't wake her!!!!!!!!!!!! Mavi slept 8 hours straight starting 6 weeks old... and i'm sure it helped in the sleeping dept. You don't want to wake her and then she starts adjusting to that routine, she might never go back. A baby will wake up if they are hungry... IMO </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196140 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:16:26 +0000 Honeybee 196140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would let her sleep and throw a party for myself! :) Seriously, that's great, and as long as she is gaining weight normally, you can let her sleep as long as she wants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196125 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:04:17 +0000 Mrs. Bee 196125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yesssss i would leave her! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-let-your-2month-old-sleep-through-the-night#post-196123 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 11:01:35 +0000 Mrsbells 196123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My baby is 2 months old today, (8 weeks and 5 days to be exact) last night she slept 7 hours straight. Which is the longest she has ever slept. I think it might be due to the fact that I mixed some formula into her breast milk earlier in the evening and she also had a bottle of formula only in the evening. but her last meal before she slept was 100% breast milk. I felt kinda strange when I woke up this morning and realized she pretty much slept through the night and never cried. I decided to wake her up around 6am to feed her. I just wondered if this is normal for a 2month old who is primarily breast fed?. Should I have woken her up earlier, or just let her sleep as long as she wants </p>
