Breastfeeding Moms
I'm guessing it's just a phase, dd has slept 7hrs night before last and 6 1/2 last night! It sure has felt good to get more than 3hr stretches! I also think she is teething, I can even feel a bump in her gums (and she has started drooling and trying to chew on me when she is done nursing).

Lucky!!! My 11 month old has yet to sleep more than 4-5 hours at night!
This mommy is ready for a good nights sleep!!! -
Last night my 7day old ds didnt wake up for 6 hours, so i woke him up to nurse and he only nursed for 5mins and went back to sleep for 4hours. Idk if its normal but with 2 under 2 im taking it even if it only happens rarely lol -
"Sleeps like a baby" is the worl'd biggest lie, and has nothing to do with feeding. **grin** Waking is expected no matter what the feeding method; it's actually a survival technique, to avoid SIDS. And babies are really really good at the survival game.
Quoting DN0818:
Is it not normal for a breastfed baby to sleep through the night? -
She slept from 10-5 and then from 5:45-8:45! Holy moly, she was starving when she got up though!

She was up every 2hrs atleast last night! I was hoping she would continue to sleep good but didn't. I knew it was temporary!
