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.

1 Month Old Won't Sleep on His Back

Hi moms! I'm a first time mom of a beautiful baby boy. Everythin is going pretty well except for the fact that he does not want to sleep on his back. I'm well aware of the risk factors for SIDS including sleeping on his tummy, too hot, smoke in the home, etc. The only time my 1 month old will sleep on his back is in a swaddleme but that's no good for those hot nights. Please I need some ideas from you moms on what I should do or if I shouldn't worry. I wanted to leave him on his back til he breaks out of it but his father isn't patient...

sleep......what Is That?

my five week old son started off life sleeping three to four hours a night. and now it seems he is only sleeping an hour and a half to two hours at a time. also, his father is not very helpful during the night time hours and is away all day, so this leaves me with an around the clock job going on two to three hours of sleep. the baby will not sleep flat on his back, which makes everything even harder. help! what can i do to help the baby sleep longer.

Sleeping Thru the Night??

Am I expecting too much? Our daughter is 6 1/2 weeks old, and we are feeding her every 4 hours. She takes about 4-5 ounces at every feeding. She usually naps a little between the 7am and 11am feeding and then takes her long nap between 11am and 3pm. She usually dozes off to sleep around 8:30pm and we wake her at 11pm to feed her. after that it is very hit or miss for sleeping. Sometimes she sleeps til 3 some til 2:30. Then she goes back to sleep after she eats til about 6am. Am I expecting too much that she be headed towards sleeping thru...

Swaddling 3 1/2 Month Old

I've been swaddling my 3 1/2 month old in SwaddleMe blankets for naps and bedtime, and she's recently started breaking out of the swaddle at night, waking around 1 and 5 for night feedings. So, should I stop swaddling or move to a "heavy duty" swaddle blanket, like the Miracle Blanket, that she cannot break out of during the night? I would like to transition out of the swaddle soon, but I am afraid that she won't be able to fall asleep if I don't swaddle her at all. It really seems to calm her down. I'm not sure she would be able to fall...
