Hi mummy firstly congratulations on your newborn. It is indeed tiring for first few weeks getting use to the sleepless night esp for newborn. Because it is a different environment and getting used to all the changes therefore they tend to wake up at night or wee hrs. My first child use to wake up every 3 hrs for few months. But, my second child she only wake up once after a few weeks. So both has different sleeping pattern. However, I will make sure that their last feeding bedtime will make them full before they sleep tight. Unless they are milk monster just like my first then I will have sleepless night. You will eventually get use to the pattern. You can definitely make changes once you know how your newborn sleep, wake up, feeding time. It is tiring but it requires trial and error.
