Oh my God, I forgot what a solid 5 hours of sleep felt like!!! Last night the boys went down at about 8, Con woke at 830, thought he just needed patting but he was rooting around so he nursed a bit and then went right back to sleep ... and they slept until 4:30!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I slept solid for about 5 and a half hours!!! Then they went right back down about 5 and slept until 730!!!! They had progressively pushing that feeding time ahead (was a 2 am then a 5 am feeding, then just a 3 am feeding, then 330 ...) so hopefully they just keep moving it up until there are no nighttime feedings!!! I feel like a million bucks today!!!!!!!!!!!! :a_smil09:
Woo-hoo!! That's SO great. Be ready for a few set-backs here and there, but it definitely sounds like they're working towards it. That's pretty much how our boys progressed (although Owen started sleeping through a little earlier than Ben). The big challenge was getting Ben to go from 5-6 hours to the full 10-12, but WHATEVER, 5 hours is awesome and should give you some relief!
