Sleeping too much in the day?

Savannah still sleeps an awful lot during the day. Basically she wakes to eat and then goes back to sleep most of the time. Sometimes she'll wake up and hang out to play or do tummy time, but usually only about 2-3 hours a day (outside of the time it takes her to eat).

When did your LO start being awake more during the day?
Should I try harder to wake her?
Should I be worried? Or is it good for her growth?

  • Stella is the exact same age as Savy (& similar adjusted age) and she is the exact same way.  I would NEVER wake a sleeping baby.  They grow when they sleep. And I appreciate the time to get stuff done because as the days go by, they will become more & more awake.

  • Totally normal! I think Ruby started to be awake more around 4 months actual, but little by little... She would still sleep often but for shorter periods of time...
  • I think that was pretty typical for Keira at that age too. ?
