as long as ur lo's are still gaining weight it is fine. my daughter was 11 weeks early and she started sleeping throught the night at about 19 weeks, not much help but thought i would reply. my little man is also prem born @ 35+6 and i will let him sleep through when he wants to, he dont feed for long at night.

I was going to ask this question. My lo is 8 wks old now (7 wks early) so only makes her 1 week old. Anyway, she has bottle at 11pm then goes through till 5am then feeds every 3 hrs from then.  She has 7 bottles through the day so would have been 8 if she still has another one during night. 

I've been worried too cause don't know whether I should wake her caue don't want her loosing weight, but she's having over 4 ozs extra of what she is supposed to have for her weight in the day so have thought it can't be doing any harm missing 1 bottle.

Has anyone else experienced this with their lo and what should we do xxxx

My neo-natal tean told me to wake Kaiya every 3 hrs till she was at her due date then let her wake when she's ready herself. As long as she's taking he rbottles well in the day then don't worry. She's obviously not hungry otherwise she'd wake. Kaiya is 8 months and still wakes in the night.

hiya, my daugher was 11weeks early and now 14weeks old, so really 3weeks old from due date. shes been sleeping through the night alot now but i feel kind of guilty and bad that shes not being fed during the night! shall i start waking her up?! i dont want her to loose and weight as she is still tiny. any suggestions? x
