If you are not getting any sleep, look away now because my gloat is going to p** you off 
Yes, my DS at 4 weeks old has given me 2 great night sleeps in a row. Sat night we all slept for over 5 hours and then last night we were all in bed by 11.15 then Jeremy didn't wake me again until 5.30am....wah hoooo! Since I have taken dairy out of my diet he has really settled down and his reflux is almost gone. We still have an unsettled time late evening with a wee bit of reflux, but nothing like it has been the past 2 weeks where he has had it almost all day and night. i also can now lie him down within mins of feeding him....yah, long may it last  ------------- http://tickers.families.com">

Yay for you!
Haha, sadly enough I saw the title and came in to offer my sympathies, I thought it meant only six hours sleep in total. Six hours in a row is pretty legendary, he's a keeper! Do you think your 4 weeks old can teach my seven month old how it is done? ------------- Anna http://lilypie.com">

That's neat, and hopefully it means the near-end of the reflux.  -------------  |

Isn't it great. I'm so lucky to be blessed with wonderful sleepers. Josh was doing the same about that age and now it's 12 hours at night. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

he seems to have one long sleep in the day and one long one in the night and then just cat napping in-between times.
Now wait for this, last night 7 hours. Wow, what a hero. Sadly last night my DD decided to have 2 nightmares so I had to get up twice for her oh well, at least my little man (and DH of course cos don't they sleep through anything!  ) got loads of sleep last night

Andy slept 2 hours last night! Yay! Big improvement from 1 the night before! Jeremy is doing so well. I think he needs a treat. I find a new PP outfit or Peek a Blocks work well. lol ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">

Laura how are you functioning on that amount of sleep? I was moaning if I didn't get 3 hours in the first few days of DS being born, I don't know how I would cope in 1 hour
Hugs to you and fingers crossed you get 3 hours at least tonight ------------- http://tickers.families.com">

did the bath thing work Laura? DId you get your 3 hours plus? I really hope so!
We didn't get to bed until 12 last night but then he didn't wake again until 6.30, so just bloody well fantastic here on the sleep front. I didn't realise how lucky I was until I got onto this forum and read the amount of sleep some of you mums are getting....hang in there ------------- http://tickers.families.com">
