Thanks MJMOM - We are trying to keep to a 12hr night because it works well for our family, 7-7. But maybe I need to make bedtime later, I'll give the extra sleep today another try :)
Toby wasn't born early, was 40weeks 2 days when born.

HeatherC - I am so lucky he sleeps now! We had a terrible time when he was little, until about 2 weeks ago...all my old posts are about getting him to sleep more than 45mins! He still wakes at the 45min mark every time, most of the time he will go back to sleep if he's had enough A time...When he was about 7 weeks old he slept 7 hours in 24 one day, what a shocker!

Well, after Toby's 45min extra sleep yesterday I thought he would wake early, but we woke him at 7am! BUT he didn't go to sleep until 7:30 and I had to put him back on the booby (I have mastitis atm so didn't know how much he had taken because it's all swollen)....a good first night though!

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize that.  But how wonderful that he's able to resettle past 45 mins now.

Sounds like things worked out very well.  Sorry to hear about your mastitis.  I hope you feel better soon.
Keep us updated on how he does.

Sorry Bec... I'm clearly confusing you with someone else with the premie.  My bad!!!

So sorry about the mastitis!  Ouch!!!  Albeit painful, as Toby is eating, try massaging the area.  Hurts I know... but that seemed to help clear it out quicker.
