Given the previous post about the sleep training article, I'm curious when other babies started sleeping through the night. Our daughter dropped her night feedings at 3.5 months, but she still woke up multiple times per night for her pacifier. She didn't start reliably sleeping through the entire night (12 hours straight) until around 7 months, and at 9 months she still only makes it through the entire night with no night wakings maybe 50% of the time.
How about your baby...?

She was sleeping straight through from 2-3 months, then woke up for one feeding a night from 3-6 months and then started sleeping through again at 6 months.

M started around 7 months. She might wake up once or twice for a few minutes but falls back aero by herself. There's been twice thus far I had to nurse her back .
I'm not expecting it to last!

She started sleeping through the night from 3-4.5 months.
After that, she regressed terribly.
Now at 8 months, she wakes 6-12 times a night.

We sleep-trained at 3.5 months not to get her to STTN but only to get longer stretches of sleep and to self-soothe. From 4-6 months she was waking 2-3 times a night. From 6-8 months it was a extremely consistent 2-wakeups (midnight and 4am). Then naturally she dropped one from 8-10months. Then from 10 months on, she slept 12+hours per night.

8 months and he's only slept through 4 times. Wakes at least once to eat, and sometimes once more, but just talks to himself for a couple of minutes and goes back to sleep.

Started sleeping straight through at 8 weeks, regressed at 4.5 months, went back to 10-12 every night at 6.5 months, and has been waking once every night since 7.5 months (two weeks ago).

He was STTN at 7 months, but regressed when we moved. He's 10 months and still not STTN. I'm hoping a year is the magic mark

6 months and usually 2 wake ups a night for feeding. We sleep trained and this is a huge improvement.

We're at 7 months and we have never ever ever ever had a night with zero wakeups unless it was a super crappy night where he slept less than 5 hours total all night and hardly napped during the day.
We have done some with only 2 wakeups and those nights are glorious!

Yes, at 6 months- but that only lasted until 8 months. He started sleeping on his belly, and it was like magic for 2 months. Now at a year, it comes and goes in waves. It depends on his mood, naps, teething, appetite, and the alignment of the sun, moon, and stars

Wakes up once at 9 months, for feeding... Every so often, just wakes up so I have to put back to sleep....
