hi all,
I am curious if anyone has found a way to extend the night sleep successfully.
Nicholas is 3 months and one week old and he will sleep for 5-7 hours straight in the evening starting at about , oh anywhere from 5:30 - 8:00pm. This is somehting he actually started to do on his own so we have just been folllowing his lead. The only thing is that he will then wake up for feedings about every three hours from about 11:30pm on ( 12pm, 3pm 6 am).... We read Weisbluth who does not recommend keeping him up later to sleep later, and actually that hadn't work when we did try it. We are not complaining becasue we are happy that he has a long sleep to begin with since he only naps for 30 -60 mintues at a time during the day but needless to say mommie is getting weary. Unless I sleep when he does at 6:00pm then I I only get short sleep spurts. Any advice?
thanks!
