How long does ur DC sleep at night (1-3 month olds)

just wondering, my DS (who is a little over 6 weeks) is not to bad, anywhere from 3 1/2 -6 hours, then has a bottle and goes down around another 4 hours or s (oh my son is bottle fed)
i find my biggest problem is, that b/c he so young and not on a schedule, his last bottle at night time fluctuates anywhere from 8-11 and i dont know how to get to to be a more consistent time...also if i give him a bottle b/t 7-8:30, i end up hoping he gets up at 10-11 to eat again so he sleeps till like 2-4AM and i only have to get up once in the night, i found if he takes an 8:00 bottle and doesn't wake up 3 hours later for his next bottle,, he will wake up b/t 12-1 and then again b/t 4-5 so i get up twice, augh its so frustrating that every night is different,
so i was just wondering what your DC at this age or around this age is/was doing, thanks!

he has a night nap and usually last bott;e is between 9:30-11:30 pm.

He goes to bed for the night around 10:30-12:00 at night and he sleeps from 6-11 hours ...If its 6 he will go back down for about another 3 or so after a bottle, if he sleeps 11 hours straight, he is up for a while once he wakes up.

ETA- He is 9 weeks

DD gets her last bottle at around 7:30 and goes to bed. Right now I give her another bottle at around 10:00 (she's barely awake), but I'm trying to do away with that one.

Re: How long does ur DC sleep at night (1-3 month olds)

DD is 3.5 months - she goes down between 7:30 and 8 and sleeps until 3-4, gets breastfed, then is down until 7am. This is a pretty new development. 2 weeks ago she was going down at around 8:30-9 and sleeping until 5-6, but she's teething.

She is mostly breastfed.

we put ds to bed between 10-12, he will sleep for about 5 hours... he will then eat and sleep for another 3-4 hours...

Wow, you ladies gave me hope!!! DD is 5 weeks now & has just (the last 2 nights) slept for a 5 hour clip (11-4)..but otherwise its 3 hours at a time, w/ usually one longer 4 hour shot.

Re: How long does ur DC sleep at night (1-3 month olds)

since he was a few weeks old, he has slept consistently inconsistently.

usually from 9-3 and then up at 6 for the day.

soemtimes 9-2, 9-4 and 9-5.

he's 11 weeks now. i've found that if he goes on his tummy (taboo i know) after the 3 or 4am feeding, he'll sleep sound and happily until 6 or 7.

Re: How long does ur DC sleep at night (1-3 month olds)

DS is almost 8 weeks old, he usually sleeps about 3-4 hours, so he is up about 1ish, 4ish and 7ish. A couple of times he went for 7 hours w/o being fed, but that started at 8ish, so he was up again around 2ish, he is BF
