Can my 9-month-old sleep through the night without feeding? How do I know if they're ready?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

A 9-month-old can sleep through the night without feeding, and many babies at this age do. You can tell if they're ready by looking at:

  • Are they getting enough calories during the day? (With 3 main meals plus snacks, well-balanced)
  • Has their weight reached at least double their birth weight? (Usually around 7-8 kg)
  • Do nighttime wakings seem to be for comfort rather than hunger? (They fall back asleep within a few minutes)
  • Has the number of nighttime feedings naturally decreased over 2-3 weeks?

It's good to check with your pediatrician before making changes, especially if weight gain has been slow or if you recently started solids. 9 months is a common age for this transition.
