Guys I know this is a small thing but I am PUMPED. We've been doing 2 hour stretches for the past month and last night she actually went 3 hours between feeds. Wife and I both got real sleep for the first time since the hospital. Feeling like a new man today.
Man that's huge! I remember when my daughter first hit 3 hours I felt like a new person. The sleep deprivation fog finally starts to lift a bit.
Yo that's not small at all! 3 hours is a game changer. Cherish these wins because they're what keep you going through the rough patches. You got this.
Three hours straight? That's a milestone right there. Once you hit that mark things start getting easier. Congrats, you're entering a new phase!
That is NOT a small thing man that's massive. Wait till you get 5 hours straight you'll feel like a whole new person. We're about 4 months in now and my daughter just gave us 6 last week and I actually woke up panicked thinking something was wrong.
This is huge! Seriously that's the turning point. Once you hit those longer stretches the nights get so much more bearable. You guys are almost through the worst of it. Hang in there.
It gets better from here brother. Pretty soon you'll be getting 4 then 5 then he'll sleep through and you'll miss these crazy nights somehow. Enjoy that 3 hour block and get some rest.

DUDE. Celebrate that. 3 hours is a game changer at that stage. I remember the exact night we hit that milestone and I almost cried happy tears. You're doing great and things get easier from here trust me.
