Typical Sleep Patterns From 3-6 months

At some point between 3 and 6 months, most babies are capable of sleeping through the night. We're not talking about eight hours, though. "Through the night" at this age generally means a stretch of five or six hours (though some children will sleep much longer).

This may not sound like much if you're hoping for eight or nine hours of sleep yourself. But it's an important milestone for you as well as your baby, allowing you to get through a few sleep cycles and feel more rested in the morning.

If your baby isn't yet sleeping five or six hours straight, you're not alone. Many babies still wake up more than once at night for feedings in the 3- to 6-month stage. But by 6 months, if not before, your baby's likely to be ready for night weaning, if that's what you choose.

If your baby already sleeps for long periods at night, enjoy it. But babies who've slept through the night for weeks or months may start to wake up again — so don't be surprised if you're suddenly getting up every couple of hours again.

It can be frustrating and puzzling if your baby does this, but she has her reasons. She may be increasingly socially aware and wake up crying for your company. Or she may be working so hard to master new skills, like rolling over or sitting up, that she practices in her sleep and wakes herself up.

This is my pattern of sleep:
11.30 - 12.30 midnight = Sleep
12.30 - 1.00 am = Wake up & cry. Will be in some kinda bad mood. Doesn't want milk.
1.00 - 4.30 am = Sleep soundly
4.30 - 4.45 am = Cry for milk.
4.45 - 7.50 am = Sleep soundly
7.50 = Will wake up for shower & breakfast.
