Hello
A 2 month old should eat every 3-4 hours but can occasionally start sleeping through the night.

Oh yes, there are some that are sleeping the night, and as long as the baby is growing fine, not to worry.
Can a 2-month-old go 8 hours without eating? That depends on many factors. If the child was a full-term baby with no underlying medical conditions and is aging weight well, then the answer is yes. Otherwise, you should consult your physician before allowing 8 hours between feeds.
