Getting a Baby to Sleep Longer Through the Night.

Just wondering if anyone had any tips, techniques, advice on getting a baby to sleep longer through the night. I have a 7 week old who was sleeping 5 to 6 hours through the night but now is starting to only sleep 3 hours. He does wake up sometimes because he has gas (any advice on that would be helpful too - I think if he didn't have gas he might be sleeping longer too). I breastfeed him and he sleeps in a bassinet right next to me (and every sound he makes tends to wake me up). Thanks for the help.

4 Month Old Sleep Issues

I have a 4 month old son who was sleeping really well during the night. He was doing his last feeding around 10:00 and staying down until around 4:00. He would get up and nurse and go back down until 7:30 or so. We are using a kiddopotamus and he sleeps much better when swaddled. The problem seems to be he is getting stronger and "breaking free"! Then he wakes himself up touching his face and taking his pacifier out. Last night we were up all night pretty much. Does anyone have any tips or possibly another wrap that may work better...
