Premature I know - but I really wanted to note No.3's first stretch of more than 3 hours between feeds through the night. TBH the norm is more like 1 1/2 - 2 hours between munch times, but last night he did a monster 5!
He was pretty settled after his 10pm feed so I put him down in his cot. I woke at 2:30am in a panic! He was still in the land of slumber so I went back to sleep. By 3:30am My right boob was going to explode, so when I heard him have half a grizzle I grabbed the opportunity to whip him out of bed and convinve him he needed to feed....
He went back down again until 7:15.
It's amazing how much brighter the day is when the sun shines and you've managed to get a nights sleep in more than 1 hour power nap batches.
He is doing really well, and although the nights are still a hit or a miss he is obviously feeding sufficiently as he is already over 11lb. Evenings are spent getting cuddles from myself or BFS as lying on hhis own doesn't appear to be an option - but because his days are surrendered to losing his parents to his brothers we don't mind.
In fact - it's my turn for a bozie so bye for now x
