Anyone's LO sleep 12 hrs or < a day?

DD will sleep 8-10 hours at night and take four half hour naps during the day.  Sometimes she barely gets 10 hours total.  My DH gets more sleep than she does.  She isn't too fussy in between naps, but she only goes 1 1/2 hours between them, so it is wearing me out.  I feel like I spend half my day getting her to sleep.  When I try to put her back to sleep right after she has waken up, she doesn't go for it, she is wide awake.  She has been like this for about 2 months.  Is it just me?  I am hoping she grows out of it.

    DS was like this around  6 months...he would last about 2 hours then nap for 30 min...he would do this all day....then he would go to bed at 6 and want to be up at 4 for the day...he eventually just outgrew it.....and now he takes 2 naps one around 9am and one around 130pm....and he goes to bed at 7 and gets up between 6 and 7. GL!!

    My DD sleeps around 10 hours a night (does not STTN though) and takes 1 hour in naps a day; today it was split in two 30 minute naps.  She is pretty happy though and doesn't seem fussy, even with her lack of sleep.  DD has been like this since she was a few months old, so I think she is programmed this way!  Good luck with your DD!!

    This was us.  Magically, around 8 months she just started taking longer naps.  She is on a beautiful schedule now.  It will happen!

    The only thing I wonder is if she's going down to bed early enough?  Maybe cut out the last nap and put her down earlier (like between 6-8)?  She may still sleep until her usual time in the morning.

    Let me tell you how many times I have tried this...........too many!  It always, always ends with her taking a longer last nap because I stay with her longer thinking I am getting her down for the night.  Then she just wakes up refreshed and goes to bed even later!  Thanks anyway, I guess I just have to get over it!
