When the baby is born, the first few nights are a little tough as he is new to the world and will take time adjusting. He would sleep anytime and wake up anytime and would want to be in your arms.

He would sleep for 3-4 hours at a stretch and get up to take the feed. So you can have uninterrupted sleep at night. Once he is six months old, he may sleep all night long. As a parent, you must observe and understand the sleep time table of your baby, when he needs a nap and when is all ready to sleep at night.
