Let her sleep!! I follow the never wake a baby rule. Unless the dr told you to for weight issues.

No he said not to wake at night- she's just fine in the weight department. She gained nearly a pound in 2 weeks Chat Icon

Then I wouldn't wake during the day either. Enjoy the quiet. She will wake up when she is hungry.

Let her sleep!!!! If shes hungry she will wake up! The only time I would wake up is if baby is underweight and doctor says to. Gabriel Slept from 12:30 to 5:10 lsat night for me! What a treat...My boobs were killing me though...lol

Agreed. Let her sleep. Sleep is just as important as feeding. She'll do both when she needs it. Right now, she's sleeping and that's what she needs!

I BF and I've never woken DS up to eat. I agree unless there is a weight issue and the ped wants you to keep to a schedule, enjoy the time to yourself!

I woke them during the day by the 4h mark, so they would sleep more at night. It seemed to work for me b/c both my kids were quick to sttn.
