questions for those with 11 weekers or older (sleep related)

lys84 · April 2010

within the last few days my baby has been sleeping 7 hours at night (yay) but sleeping a lot during the day. for example, she woke up this morning at 5:30 and was up for about 1.5 hours fell back to sleep and then woke up for a half hour and fell back to sleep again. im worried that she is sleeping too much? anyone BTDT?

she did not sleep this much during the day before....

As I posted in another thread, sleep begets sleep. You are getting your baby to sleep more often and therefore she is sleeping better. That's the difference. I read that even at 6 mos babies should be sleeping 15 hours per day. HTH.

It's normal. Nick does the same every few days.

OMG. My 11 week old seems like he is sleeping more now than he has been for the last couple of weeks. He took a four hour nap yesterday, and then went down at 7:30 - for the night! I woke him at 1 because I was engorged, and then he woke again at 3:30 (his normal time), and then at 5:30 (which is also normal).
