Generally speaking, if all goes well and you have a good sleep routine and good sleep hygiene, a child from about six months of age should be able to start sleeping through the night. Again, it's not a definite, definite time, but a baby should usually start to sleep through the night from about six months (sometimes five months if you're lucky). At six, seven, eight months, you should expect your child to sleep through the night.
