How many hours does your DC sleep?

Christakim · March 2009

I know it's going to be different at different ages, but it seems that between naps and nighttime sleep, Ella sleeps quite a bit, I would say about 15 hours. I'm in no way complaining, but is that TOO much? How much does your DC sleep?

My girls are 6.5 months actual/3.5 months adjusted and they sleep about 11 hours at night and maybe another 3 on a good day in naps so they're about the same as Ella. I hope it's not too much!

We use Trixie Tracker to record G's day. It provides some stats for other kids at G's age.

At 6mo, the average daily sleep is ~13.5 hr, so I'd say you're in range.

G sleeps 11hrs over the course of the evening, takes a 2hr nap in the morning, has a 1hr nap mid day and a 20min nap in the afternoon.

We're right with you on the 15hrs.

She sleeps about 11 hrs at night, but barely naps during the day - maybe she'll take two 30 min naps (1 in the morning, 1 in the afternoon).

DS is almost 18 months old. He sleeps 11-12 hours every night and then he takes a 2-3 hour nap each day........so a total of 13-15 hours a day.......

Aaron sleeps about 11 hours at night. But the past few nights he's been waking up about 15 times. Anybody know what to do about that? He takes about a 2-3 hour nap in the morning. Then another 1hr nap in the afternoon. I think it sounds about right. I hope all the babies don't sleep less yet! HEHE!!

DS sleeps 11-12 hours a night and 1 hour during the day, but he has never been much of a napper to begin with.

look how cute ella is!

ginny sleeps 11 - 12 hours a night. but she's up a few times fussing and needing her pacifier.

now that she is older her daytime naps are getting shorter. her naps are typically 1 - 2 hours twice a day.

DD now sleeps 11 hours at night usually (wakes up once to eat still) at 5.5 months. She is a terrible napper though. She may only nap for 1 - 1.5 hours all day.

I don't think that's too much! My DS sleeps about 15 hrs a day and he's 16 months! (13 hrs at night and a 2 hr nap, but I know I'm in the minority. I'm sure hell will rain down with this next one.....)
