 Newborn and sleep? 
How long before newborns start sleeping more than  3hours at a time?  My son wakes up every 3 hours like clockwork to eat.

 Re: Newborn and sleep? 
Mine is 1 1/2 weeks and wakes every 2-3 to eat.
  Sometimes she will sleep for 4 hours in the middle of the night.

 Re: Newborn and sleep? 
You've got a while. My daughter sleeps about 7-8 hours at night waking about halfway through but during the say its every 2-3 hours sometimes more to eat.

 Re: Newborn and sleep? 
My son is now 3.5 weeks old and he sleeps 5-6hrs at night after his 8pm formula feeding. When I breast feed he wakes every 2-3 hrs to eat. So I guess it depends on the baby.

 Re: Newborn and sleep? 
I don't think Jake started sleeping longer stretches (4 - 5 hrs) until 4 - 5 weeks.  He was sleeping 8 hours at around 10 weeks.

Nicholas started sleeping 5 hours at night when he was 4 weeks old.  Now he is 6 weeks old and he is still sleeping 4-5 hours straight at night.

 Re: Newborn and sleep? 
It varies, for me it took 6 weeks to get one longer stretch.
