For mobile: 12 month old how many hours of sleep total?
How many hours of sleep does your LO get total broken down into overnight sleep and nap(s)?
DD has been sleeping roughly 9-10 hours at night and then takes a quick morning nap for 30 mins or so (has been dropping this one some mornings), but my question comes into play for her afternoon nap. I put her down, and at the 2.5 hour mark, I usually go wake her. I am not sure how long she would go if I just let her go. I think the 3 days she is at daycare she sleeps less, so it might be different at home.
She is fully alert and super active in between, so I am not super concerned about some major issue, but as a highly anxious person, that is on my mind. The Ferber book scared me haha. Those darn charts making it seem like every child is the same!
Is it "normal" for a child to get decent overnight sleep and then take such a long nap in the afternoon? Is that even considered long?
Re: 12 month old, how many hours of sleep total?
DS sleeps 12-13 hours at night and takes one 3ish hour nap. So total he's sleeping 15-16 hours.
It's crazy to me that this is the same child who was up every 2 hours during the night for his first 6 months of life.
DD is almost 17 months but her schedule hasn't changed since she dropped to one nap at 12 months.
She naps for 1.5-2 hours in the afternoon and sleeps about 12 hours overnight. So she gets around 14 hours a day

I don't THINK DS's sleep has changed much since he was that young, but I never write things down anymore. That was around the age we transitioned to one gloriously long nap.
He still sleeps around 11 hours at night, and does a 2-3 hour nap unless
Both of our kids sleep 10-11 hours at night and once they dropped their morning naps (both around 13 months), a two hour nap in the afternoon.
Before they dropped the morning nap, they were also sleeping about 30-60 minutes in the morning, but p
You're right that once they hit the one year mark, ever kid is going to be different. The books just give general guidelines, so I wouldn't be too concerned about what it says in the Ferber book.
Since about 10.5 months, my LO has been sleeping 1
At 12m LO slept 11-12hrs at night, 1-1.5hrs in the am, and 1-2hrs in the pm. Less nighttime sleep always meant longer naps, and vice versa so he totaled 13-14hrs.
FWIW all kids are not the same, just like adults some need more sleep than oth
