[quote=Anonymous]It was bad the first month. Started sleeping 7-8 hours a night at 7 weeks and never looked back; 20 months now. Of course he has regressions, but it’s not unmanageable (eg there might be a week where he struggled at bedtime or wakes up - illness, vocab leaps, etc) Things that worked for us and seem to work for others: putting him in his own room at 4 weeks. Doing breastfeeding + pumped milk + formula (ie he was always fed until we knew he was full and we generally knew how much he was getting). Once he demonstrated he could sleep through the night (after a week or so of doing it), we would comfort but not feed him if he woke up. Swaddling (recommend the sleep pea). White noise.[/quote]
