Did it stick?
M slept all the way through the night last night and the night before. I'm trying not to get too comfortable, yet, lol. He's only 10 weeks, so I know there are regressions coming up.
What was your experience?
-
My LO didn't sleep through the night until 4 months. He was a preemie, so it wasn't really an option, he needed the night feeds for weight gain... BUT, once he did STTN it stuck. That's awesome your LO is STTN already.
-
No. She had a couple of early STTN then kept a usual 1-2 wake ups routine until 9 months, when she started STTN on her own. That time it stuck (and is AMAZING). But your baby might be different!
-
My baby still doesn't STTN at 11 months, so I have no clue. I'm totally jealous of you though!
-
Dd started STTN (8 hours) at 5weeks . I tried not to get too comfortable since everyone told me not to, but it stuck! That's not to say we didn't have a MOTN wakeup once in a while but for the most part she STTN and we never had a full blown regression. Now at 9 mo she consistently sleeps 7pm-8am which is so glorious.
FX you have a good sleeper! Sleep makes everything better, lol
-
B has been doing 8-9 hour stretches for a while (once he hit 11 lbs, I think) but he sometimes regresses. A bad night for him is still a 6 hour stretch followed by 3-4 so I'm hoping that will last.
-
Exciting! We had all kinds of STTN false alarms but it never went to 3 days. Maybe once you get to that 3 day mark start getting excited?
-
For us it was a short lived experience. He was sleeping through the night a couple of times at 10/11 weeks and then he went back to waking up twice or three times a night for a really long time.
I sure hope M will keep it up for you though!!!
-
D STTN by 3 months, also, which stuck pretty well. I was totally expecting M to be more difficult, since he's more difficult in every other aspect (he's really fussy...D was so mellow!)
-
My son never STTN until just after his first birthday. But it did stick when he finally did it.
-
DD only STTN with sleep training, which we did at 6.5 months, 9.5 months, and 13 months. The last time it stuck (she's 17 mo now).
-
No advice, since DS still doesn't always STTN at 17 months, but just wanted to say that I hope it does stick! That's amazing!
-
DD slept through at 11 weeks, had a short regression when she learned to stand in her crib and the occasional cold teething wakeup, but for the most part it stuck. Congrats on a great sleeper!
-
Xander started STTN (7 hours) at 10 weeks too and it stuck! He's been a great sleeper ever since!
-
Amending my answer - if you're only talking about 7-8-9 hours at a stretch, that stuck from about 8 weeks on, except during the terrible 4 month sleep regression and any time we traveled. (Kid does not sleep on vacation.) The post sleep training STTN was 12+ hours.
-
Yep, give or take some teething and/or sickness related issues. We sleep trained at 6 months, though, and started to get the 12 hour stretches. Before that, we were technically getting the 5-6 hour stretches by about 6 weeks. I've never had to re-sleep train her (14 months) but she has bad nights now and then (4 wake ups last night, but I vaguely remember them.....she wakes up, cries a little, then goes back to bed. I rarely have to go in and comfort her, and when i do, I'm not up for hours)
-
Nope! She started around 4 months, some nights and some not. Then around 5 it all went to shit again. Then we resleep trained at 6 months and outside of teething, she has been STTN since.
-
Yep, aside from teething or sick nights, it stuck for us.
-
It stuck for LO 1, aside from some standing at 11 months ,illness and couple nights after we moved.
LO 2 had a minor regression at 10.5 months and she woke up once for a couple of weeks.
-
My LO slept through (12 hrs) once last week and I'm still waiting for it to repeat itself! Hehe. She's 8 months through so I think it will start to happen more often soon.
-
@Dandelion: LO did this too the last two nights!!! Both were post-shots and Tylenol-induced, though. I'm not holding my breath, but oh my gosh was it nice!
-
@gilmoregirl: that's awesome, too! Go B!
@Charm54: that IS glorious. Wow! -
DS STTN at 5 weeks (9 hours) and never really regressed. He's 16m now and sleeps 12 hours a night.
