Long wake windows - 8 months

I’m concerned my baby isn’t getting enough sleep due to long wake windows. They seem to be a bit longer than age appropriate wake windows. Her first one is age appropriate at 2.5 hours. Her second is usually at 3.5 hours which is 30 mins over age appropriate. And her last is 4.5 hours before bedtime. Everything I’ve read usually has the last at 3.5-4 hours even up to 10 months. She is also only getting 10.5 hours nighttime sleep at most but usually gets between 9-10.5 at night. (I can’t let her get more than 3 hrs nap time total or else she’s very restless at night so I have that part figured). So she’s usually only getting about 12-12.5 total sleep a day. 

I’m fine if it’s normal. Maybe she just has low sleep needs but up until now she’s been on the normal to higher side with sleep so I just don’t know if I’m doing something wrong. 

She usually goes to bed around 8pm or before but about half the time she has bedtime refusal and won’t go to bed til later. She never had nap time refusal until this past Saturday. She wakes between 6-630am
