11 week old sleep issues??

I have two questions regarding my son's 11 week old sleep habits. My son has been sleeping from around 8/8:30pm until 6:00/6:30am since 6 1/2 weeks old. Will he ever be able to extend this time until 7am? Often he begins to cry/fuss starting @ 5:00/5:30am, but will put himself back to sleep until finally all out cry @ 6:00ish. This brings me to a second question regarding his naps. I always follow the eat/play/sleep pattern and put him down as early as 45 min. after awake time & no longer then 2 hrs. He seems to never be able to stay asleep for the entire nap cycle. What I mean is he might be in his crib for 1-2hrs. for his scheduled nap, but he has cried off & on & put himself back to sleep 3-4 times during his naps. Will he ever be able to be put down, fall asleep & stay asleep until wake time? He is always put down awake & falling asleep initially is not the problem, it is the constant waking up during the nap cycle. He will not take a pacifier, as I have tried with no success. He is swaddled for every nap & bed time & has a womb sound monitor that goes off when he starts crying, which has helped him fall back asleep temporarily. Please offer any suggestions you may have. Thank you!
