Research shows that there's is a decrease on the average glucose level at the 8 hour mark. The time in between that, it's good for any baby, even a newborn (haven't you heard about the newborns that sleep 10 hours stretches when they come home from the hospital??? there seem to be a lot of them around my family :twisted: )
So for baby, it's OK to spend as of 8 hours without a meal until the age of 6 months, then the lenght varies from kid to kid...
As for the milk supply, maybe you can pump at the 4 hour mark? just for the first 3 weeks and that way you let lo sleep as much as he wants to and you keep your supply on top. Too much exhausting work, I know... but it'll be just a couple of more weeks.
Congratulations on your baby boy!!!!!!!!!!!
