I have a 12 day old baby girl and i'm wondering how long i should let her sleep for at night before i wake her for a feed? last night she slept 7 hour

Lucky you! As long : as she is alert when awake, feeding well & gaining 2/3 of an ounce to an ounce/day, count your blessings. See healthychildren.org for methods of insuring sleep consolidation between 1-4 months, to avoid behavioral sleep problems that can begin at 5-6 months. Enjoy your baby!
