Does the 12 hour night sleep really exist?
Hi Ladies
DD dropped her night time feed at week 9 and is now 20 weeks old. Her night sleep is good, I shouldn't complain BUT ... of course in my pregnancy reading about the joys of motherhood I latched on to the suggestion that LOs are capable of sleeping 10 to 12 hours through the night. At the moment, DD falls asleep around 8pm. She wakes two times on average during the night, usually looking for her dummy, but then, as though she has an internal alarm, wakes at 4.45am on the dot every morning. Her room is dark, her nappy is clean, it's quiet so I am sure there are no environmental factors that cause her to wake.
Hubby and I have taken to going to bed early ourselves just to ensure we get some sleep throughout the night. We both work so sleep is important to us!
DD has just started taking solids and although she is sleeping more soundly at night, is the magical 12 hours of sleep at night around the corner for us????!!! We have tried moving her bed time earlier but she gets hyper after she drinks/eats rather than falling asleep and her meal times are spaced out every four hours throughout the day making her night meal at 6pm/7pm.
I am hesitant to re-introduce a night time feed since she has been off it for more than 10 weeks and because she goes hyper after her meal.
Would appreciate your thoughts/suggestions/reality checks on this one!
