I would just let her sleep! She might be going through a growth spurt which is why she's sleeping so much. Missing a bath won't hurt!

Never, never wake a sleeping baby! She's too young to really have grasped the concept of a routine yet anyway. Skip the bath and hope she sleeps all night!

I would let her sleep (says the girl still nursing her baby to aleep in the dark right now). She might wake up at a weird time and you can change to pjs and the swaddle then. C has been having random days where she sleeps a ton lately too.

@lawbee11: is there a reason she can't sleep in what she is wearing now?

Let her sleep!

I would just let her sleep. She doesn't even need pjs!

@lawbee11: fingers crossed she stays asleep for a long time!

I hope she stays asleep a long time.

@lawbee11: nah! Just go to bed!! Or do nothing!

@MamaMoose: I am always nervous about that too- and it's exactly what happened the first time I ever pumped.

Again C has pulled this and I thought for sure shed wake up hungry but one if the only times she ever slept 7 straights hours was a night like that. You could pump the other side just so you can sleep comfortably but the side he started in will still have some. But if you don't feel like it I wouldn't worry about it.

@lawbee11: Is it wrong that I sang my response in my head . . .*Skip It, Skip It Good!* to the tune of Devo's Whip It?

Good question - what was the outcome? My LO is 8 weeks old and Im strict with her routine but the last couple of days she's been napping near bedtime and I don't have a clue what to do!!!!

@lawbee11: Wow!! That is great sleep. My baby never slept that much during growth spurts. She just wanted to eat all the time.

Awesome! I'd watch for trends, maybe she wants bedtime moved up?

@lawbee11: I'm getting caught up on the comments. When mine was that age, I also did the whole let a sleeping baby sleep. I tried to keep him in a one-piece outfit most of the time so that I didn't have to worry with changing him at night if he was already asleep. But I also found sleep-sacks to be the best because they are so much easier to get in and out of without waking him. Also, I struggled with the pumping question. I always ended up pumping into a bottle. That was nice because then DH could do a feeding that night while I slept.
