How long does your LO sleep at night?

DS takes at least 3 naps a day, one being pretty long and two 1-1.5 hour naps a day as well. 

When it comes to the evening he sleeps from 7:45/8:00 until about 7:45/8:00, and I suppose I am curious if this is normal and if anyone else has a LO that sleeps this much.

Re: How long does your LO sleep at night?

  • I'm jealous!  DD sleeps 11-12 hours a night so I can't complain about that, but she looks like she is trying to drop down to one nap.  She has been taking two 1-2 hour naps for the last few months.  Last week she shortened her afternoon nap to 25-45 min and today I didn't bother putting her down for second nap, since she has been fighting it, just to see how she would do.  Enjoy the free time during naps while you have that amazing schedule!

    Oh wow, yeah was waking up at 6:30 (now around 8:00) goes back to sleep around 10:00 for about an 1-1.5 hours, he is back asleep around 1:00 for 2-3 hours and then at like 5:30, okay maybe this is a short nap but it's because we wake him up at 6:00.  Then come 8:00 he is back asleep.  I was so concerned I asked his Dr. if that was okay to nap that much and he said it way and to cherish it.

    Now I will say the last 2 days, it could be a fluke but I have a feeling it isn't.  He is sleeping until 8:00 with no fail, and then does not want to go down and I lay him down still by 11:00 and he talks for about 20-30 minutes then falls asleep, he will sleep for about 3 hours, then goes down again at 4:00 and naps until 6:00.  I don't mind the two naps at all but that first part of the day he can get very cranky with such a gap that he isn't used to.

  • Normally 10.5 hours. He goes to bed at 8pm and gets up around 6:30. On a bad day he gets up before 5:30, on a really good day he sleeps till almost 7. He sleeps all the way through with no feelings or wakings (unless he's sick or really bad teething)

  • My LO sleeps about that much.  11-12 hours at night, plus about 3 hours during the day (2 naps).  I think he is starting to shorten his AM nap now.

  • She usually sleeps right around 11 at night.  

    Then she takes 2 naps a day(usually, sometimes it is only one 2 hour nap) that total anywhere from 3-4 hours.

  • N sleeps from approx 8 - 8 with one wake up around 5 or 6.  Sometimes he'll sleep till 9 and actually lately his wake up has been closer to 7.  I would say on average he sleeps 12 hours a night and 1 1/2 - 2 hours worth of naps a day - sometimes they are over 2 naps but more often 3.

  • On a good day DS has two long naps (around 2- 2 1/2 hour each) and goes to bed at 8, and wakes up at 7.  Occasionally he will wake up at 2am to nurse and go back to bed.  On an off day he will take three shorter naps (around 1 1/2 hours each) and go down at the same time.

  • M will sleep 7ish to 6ish give or take on each end, no feedings or wakings thank goodness!  He usually naps after about 2.5 hours of waking for 1.5-2.5 hours... Then second nap somewhere between 1:30-2:30 depending on the first nap for 1.5-2.5 hours.  So m sleeps a lot too! Haha

  • very jealous! My Lo takes a 30min nap around 10/11am and a 40min to an hour nap around 2/3pm. He goes to bed around 8:30 wakes up around midnight to nurse and then goes right back to sleep and then wakes up around 6am to nurse and then goes right back to sleep till around 9am if I am off and we can sleep in. But on the days I work I have to wake him up around 8am to go to grandmas.
