Nighttime sleep!!
Any tips on how to get my newborn to sleep longer through the night or to atleast help him to fall back to sleep after a feed.
He currently goes to sleep at 9pm, wakes up for a bottle around 1:30/2am then goes back down till 5:30am, it can take me over an hour to get him to sleep though after his 1:30am feed! Xx

My LO was the same, I think it’s just a matter of waiting it out. I would suggest swaddling, using a white noise machine, and maybe singing or humming to them to help settle down. I’ve also been stricter with bath-bottle-bed routine and it seems to help. He’s 10 weeks corrected now and starting to sleep 5-6h in a row 😊 hope that helps, but if you’re already doing all of these, it’ll just be a matter of time 💪🏻

Sounds pretty normal to me. Sleep is developmental so I do think often with the best will in the world, they will just do what they want to do. My 15 month old can still have nights like that.
