First child slept through the night at 7 weeks. We were spoiled.
Second child slept through the night at 7 months. Ouch.
Third child slept through the night at about 3 months.
Now the biggest problem is getting them all to sleep at a reasonable time. The oldest (5) fights falling to sleep before 9pm and the youngest (1) is always up before 7am. Since we go to be at about 11pm, it makes it pretty difficult to get anything done around the house.
Good luck with your first child. You don't realize it now, but just one child is easy. You'll realize it when the next one comes along. With three (or more), you've got to drop back to a zone defense and hope your kids don't kill themselves or each other.
