If he appears to be eating approximately the same amount at each feeding... why does he stay asleep and satisfied for such varying intervals? Last night was pretty typical...
-Fed at 10pm and he slept for a full three and a half hours.
-Fed again and he slept for two and a half more.
-Fed again and he only made it a whopping hour and a half before waking up. I held him off that time because it was too soon for him to eat. This put us at about 6:45ish am. I would have loved an extra half hour or so of sleep.
Those intervals change night to night. Some times he does a short interval first and then the last one is the long one. I just wish I understood this unpredictability!

I totally know what you mean! Isaac's first stretch of night sleep is 3 1/2 hours, and then he'll have two 2 1/2 hour stretches. But like you said, he eats the same amount each time. Strange.
And sometimes during the day, he's hungry just an hour after eating. I've given up trying to hold him off because nothing will stop those cries but my boob!
