Sleeping thru night - 3 months?

The twins started sleeping 5 hrs and occasionally anywhere between 6 and 9 hrs from when we put them down! :). Then they get up next time every 4 hrs. Is there a way to make them do the longer stretch during middle of night? They go down around 745 and give us til 1. Not complaining, but I wouldn't mind an 1145 and then the long stretch! Is it possible ???

I cluster fed my daughter before putting her to bed at 8ish. She has been sttn since about ten weeks using this technique. She is almost 4 months old now.

How much/ how often did you cluster?

I do a feeding immediately before putting them down - even if it isn't their time... They'll usually take about 3 oz...

My twins had their days/nights confused for about 2 weeks. Then out of no where they "got it" and by 5 weeks old they were STTN (about 10 hour stretches).

We did a dream feed with my son. At 3 months, I would nurse him at 7pm then bath and put him in the swing at 8:30. At 10 or 10:30 I would bring him upstairs and nurse him while he was sleeping, then put him in his crib. He would sleep till 6am.

We dropped the dreamfeed @ 4.5 months and just nursed and put him to bed at 9pm.
