11 weeks sleep schedule
So my DS is showing that he is capable of sleeping through the night, but he wont do it at night.
Last night he had a bottle at 6, fell asleep at 8 and didn't wake for the next bottle until 3 am. So he slept for 7 hours and went for 9 without a feeding.
He does this all the time. I have tried waking him at 10 or 11 for a bottle with hope that he will sleep through the night, but then he wakes every 3 hours after that.
He eats every 3 hours during the day. What else can I try? I need to sleep!

Re: 11 weeks sleep schedule
My Ds is 13 weeks and is doing the same thing. going about 7 hours sleepingh and around 8 without a bottle. he fell asleep last night at 9:30 and woke at 3:30 to eat.
I think they just have to work out that last bottle. You can try keeping him up later but I don't like to do that to them. Not sure if there is a solution but eventually wont they stop NEEDing that feeding?

Re: 11 weeks sleep schedule
I hope so! My DD slept through the night by 7 weeks. She would do 11 pm than 7 am for feedings...so I was totally spoiled by her. I am hating this middle of the night business!

Re: 11 weeks sleep schedule
I am thinking maybe a bath can hold him off for that last bottle a bit. I am going to try it.

Re: 11 weeks sleep schedule
One of my DS is the exact same way - just started this past week at 12 weeks. Eats around 6, bed at 7 and won't wake until 3ish. We tried an 11:30 feeding Friday night and ended up with the same thing.
I'm up anyway with the other one who goes 7-11/12 then 3, 6 so it doesn't bother me too much...yet LOL.
