Title: 9 week old was sleeping through; why has he stopped!!!!??
Post by: kirstyanne77 on September 09, 2010, 06:22:41 am

HI all, as the title says my wee man started sleeping through about 2 weeks ago; going from roughly 9pm to 6am.  Before this he would always wake at 3am for a feed (I'm breastfeeding).  For the past 4 days, he's started waking at 3 am again.  I think he's hungry so I feed him  and he settles fine.  Anyone had experience of this?? WIll he go back to sleeping through?? Any suggestion would be great.
Kx

My DD did this at 10 weeks (she was waking for a 1am feed) and then starting sleeping through again. It confused me because it isn't a traditional time for a growth spurt, but I suppose they're all different!  She went back to normal after about 5 days all on her own.  I hope your LO does too!

The first 6 months are full of growth spurts so it is definitely the right thing to do to feed at this age. Maybe he will go back to sleeping through, or he may need a night feed for a while. How about trying a dream feed?
