Hi S.,
I agree with all the moms responses to not worry. My daughter didn't start sleeping through the night till I started giving her rice cereal at 4 months. All kids are different, and it is common for babies from 8 wks on to start sleeping 12-14 hours w/out getting up to eat. Anyway, I have a question for you- are you nursing or doing formula? The reason for my question is- I have a second child (girl) who is 10 weeks and she still wakes at night and is 13 lbs. I am praying she starts sleeping through the night very soon, I am trying to get her to take a nighttime bottle of formula to see if this will help her skip that 2 am-3am feeding. Unfortunately, she is very resistant to taking the bottle and cries for me to nurse her. I was told babies who are nursing will wake more, because breastmilk is metabolized faster than formula. Know anything about this theory? Sincerely, R.
