S will be 3 next month and her bedtime is 8:30, waking up around 7AM for DC. She's been really groggy in the mornings and pulling the sheets/blankets back over her head. I would think 10 hours would be enough, but is it a growth spurt or something that is making her more tired than normal? How much sleep does your LO get?

DD sleeps about the same 8/8:30-7 with a 2ish hour nap @ preschool; she's happier when she goes to bed a little earlier than 8, but its very hard in the summer.
Yeah, she takes a 2 hour nap from 12-2 (give or take) at DC. I might try moving it up a little, but yes, it's a lot harder to move up as there is sun out still at 8:30.

DD1 never slept more than 10 hours at night until she dropped her nap. She would sleep 10 hours with a 2 hour nap. Now she needs about 11 hours at night.
DD2 usually sleeps about 11 hours at night, sometimes a bit less. She's in bed between 8-8:30pm and wakes around 7-7:30am. Her naps are 1 1/2-2 hours.

My dd sleeps the same and every morning it's a fight-lol. What's even more annoying is she is up at the @sscrack of dawn on the weekends. I don't get it!!!
Re: How much sleep for 3 YO?
Is she napping?

DS #1 gets about the same amount of sleep as your daughter. He gets 10-11 hours of sleep a night and takes a 1-2 hour nap in the afternoon.
All kids are different. My 3 YO was sleeping 2 hours at nap and 10 hours at nighttime, until one day she just up and dropped the nap (sad:)
Now at 3 and a half she sleeps 10 hours at night, and only very occasionally will she take a nap. I miss naps:(

11ish hours at night.
Sometimes a 1 hour nap midday.
He would sleep later if he could.
