Sleeping through...for a week now! :)

Baby G's been sleeping till at least 4.30am most nights! yay!! :) never thought I'd ever think 4.30/5am is a good target to aim for... but such is motherhood in the early months! After the last blog post, I didn't think we'd talk about him sleeping through ... but he has. for the last week or so, he's been going down about 9-11pm, and going through till 4.30/5. There was one night when he went from about 8.30pm (!?) and another time he hit 6am! wow wow wow. Let's hope he continues with this, and somehow it didn't matter whether he was fed Aptamil, or breast milk or a combination of both!

Speaking of which, a couple of nights ago, he had a hungry night and ate something like 300ml in total (of both breast milk and Aptamil). It was frightening to watch, and we even had to 'break open' the carton of Aptamil, because we didn't have enough boiled water (on standby) nor anymore breast milk (in boob or expressed!).. that's like a pint of milk isn't it?! in a little body like his?! I don't get where it all went. We thought it meant that he'd go till at least 6 or 7am... but no, he still woke up at about 5. Oh well, mustn't complain.

ok, will be blogging about something else in the next post...
