Hi mummies .. my boy is 9 weeks old and im training him to sleep through the night. Past 2 nights, he ate at ard 1am and slept till abt 7am. However, he did wake up abt 2 or 3 times in the middle of the night and we just gave him the pacifier (he didnt slp with pacifier after the feed) and he did not protest for milk, continued to sleep. Is it ok for us to use pacifier to lengthen his sleep this way?

For a 9-week-old newborn, feed on demand, mum. He needs all the milk he can get! Sorry, but you will have to wake up every 2 hours to feed. Such is the nature of a newborn. And you have to let him know that his needs are being met because emotionally - that will help build a foundation of love and care in him, as well as trust. You want your baby to trust and love you. So please, I say again, feed on demand.
