A. Yes! The key: during the first few months feed your little one every 1.5-2 hours during the day (if he's sleeping, wake him after 2 hours). That should help you get a couple of back-to-back longer clumps of sleep (3, 4, or even 5 hours) at night, and eventually grow by 6 hours…then 7 hours at a stretch, by 6 months.
