: Hi everyone...My daughter just turned 13wks yesterday and she is still not sleeping through the night.

: I have this great fear that she is going to take after her older brother and hold off for another few months. My son didn't start sleeping through the night until about 5mos.

: Madison gets up only once through the night for feeding but it is still broken sleep which is killing DH and I since we both work full-time!

: Advice Please...

: Thanks

Hey jennifer S.

Its great to hear from you. Now we've graduated to the parent board!

Like Steve said, its not unusual for a 3 month old to wake up once at night. Arden ( 14 weeks old now) sleeps from about 9.30 or 10 pm, and wakes up for a feed between 4 and 5.30 AM and then he goes back to sleep for another 3 hours. Luckily since I am home, I don't mind waking up whenever he does. I know it must be difficult with working full time, but there's not too much you can do about that. My friend has a 10 month old who still wakes up at around 3 AM every day. I guess each baby is different. Arden was the worst sleeper until a few weeks ago. He was waking 3 or 4 times every night. I am so thankful that he sleeps through most of the night now.
