yes, this is normal my son when he was a bay slept for 9 hours every night, it is a lucky thing as you can get to sleep without having to wake up every hour or so.

We are the lucky ones!! My four month old has been practically sleeping through the night since about 4 to 6 weeks. My four year old son didn't sleep through the night until around 8 months. He woke up every two hours for at least three months.
