How much sleep are you getting?

[mermaid]

I'm breast feeding Finley and he is still wanting feeds every hour to 2 hours! It is exhausting and sometimes he is awake for over an hour during the night. I am surviving on five hours sleep broken up if I'm lucky!

Was wondering how much sleep all you mums and dads are getting?!

Hardly any!Nathan goes 3 hours between feeds but it takes me 1 hour to feed and wind him cos he won't go back down till hes burped and he takes ages.So i get 2 hours sleep inbetween feed and this is when Aimee decides to wake me up. So i'm lucky if i get 1 straight hour. Probaly about 4 hours all night.

hiya im getting about 5 hours broken up sleep aswell im exhausted but its all worth it

 

[Melanie]

Im really lucky. Apart from a few nights here and there Thea has slept through the night since she was just a couple of weeks old.

 

[Misslarue]

An average of 6 hours a night. Daniel normally sleeps for about 3 hours.

 

[hev&madi]

i get between 8-10 hours sleep im lucky

it does get better ladies

 

[Emmerdale]

I get about 9 hours and have done since Oliver was about 3 months old - I'm very lucky as I love my sleep and so does my little angel!

I agree with Hev - it does get better as they get older

about 5 hours... Logan wakes every 3 hours for a feed in the night and feeds every 2 hours in the day

 

[mummykay]

jamie wakes for feeds every 4hours for about 20mins then back to sleep so gettin better!!

 

[Alfiesmummy]

it depends what time i go to bed, if i go at 10 i get 7 hours then and extra 3 because he goes to bed at 5 wakes between 4am/6am for a feed and sleeps till 8am then, if i go later i feel tired then, love my bed

We're lucky too. Jamie sleeps all night. He slept from about 10 (when he had a dream feed) to about 6am when he was 6 weeks old & it got later in the morning the older he got & then earlier in the evening too.

For the first 3 weeks or so he would be feeding every 2-3 hours then it became every 3 -4 & obviously longer at night as I would never wake him (after the dream feed at 10) to feed him.

ALastair still doesnt sleep through, the odd night he will, but most nights he is up around 1ish then again at 6, or like this morning up since 3!!!

mostly depending when i go to back i get between 4-5 hrs, which is killing me since i went back to work

 

[Jaidy]

Zac is 7 weeks old and goes down at half 10 then wakes usually at about 6am although its occasionaly earlier so about 7 and 1/2 hours sleep.

wow jaidy you lucky thing!

 

[Jaidy]

wow jaidy you lucky thing!

Yeah every one says I have a good baby I know some people really suffer so I feel really lucky!

I never count my chickens though it could all change tomorrow

ewan would usually go down to sleep at 9pm i'd go to bed at 10 ewan would wake around 12-1am and would feed for about 40-45 mins then take about 20 mins to burp and another 20 mins to settle to sleep then he would wake around 3-4am and take the same amount of time again, but would sleep till 8am.
so it waried at about 6-7 hours broken sleep.
Ans he still wakes even now but goe back to sleep within 15 mins, haven't had an undisturbed night for over a yr.

Finley tends to get up twice during the night, ive started going to bed at 930-10ish though and lee has given him a feed if he needs it before he comes to bed, so im prob getting about 8hrs a night though its broken, im surprised im not feeling as tired as i thought i would be

 

[lozzi]

my lil princess goes down at 11 so i do a few chores then go to bed at about 12/1 then she wakes at 9am...

im so lucky, but as jaidy says... it cud change tomorrow..

i hope it doesnt

Im really lucky. Apart from a few nights here and there Thea has slept through the night since she was just a couple of weeks old.
