How many hours a night does your 12-15 mo LO sleep?

christie.h · April 2010

DS goes to bed at 8:30 and wakes between 5:30 and 6:30. I feel like he should be sleeping longer in the morning. He naps great these days - 2 one hour naps every day. Also thinking about moving to 1 nap, but he doesn't seem ready for that yet. So I'm just curious, how long does your LO sleep at night?

Not enough.

DS#2 is 18 mos & has been on the same schedule for at least the last 6 or 7 mos. He goes to bed at 7pm & is up around 7am. He still takes two 2- hour naps each day.

DS goes down about 8:30 and wakes anywhere between 6:15 and 6:45. If we are lucky he will sleep until about 7:30 or 8 sometimes, but if he does that his afternoon nap is only about an hour. Most days he wakes up earlier and takes an hour and a half nap. He gets around 12 hours of sleep a day.

At that time, my DS was sleeping b/t 9 and 10 hours on average. However, the Dr. said that it should be at least 12 hours. We moved his bedtime earlier a little and we got him to sleep 11 hours on average. Now he is teething again and some days he is only sleeping 9 or 10 hours.

My DD sleeps about 12 hours at night. 7:30 to 7:30. We are still taking 2 to 3 naps a day as well. Also I've noticed that the times I have to put her to bed later, like 8:30 or 9, she still gets up around 7:30.

DD goes to bed around 8pm and sleeps till around 7am. Naps are inconsistent. Sometimes no nap, other times she naps for 1 hour. On a rare occasion, she naps two hours.

Paris05 · April 2010

Not nearly enough. DS goes down at 8:30PM and wakes 6:30 AND gets up once per night. Last night he was up from 3AM-4AM

she is in bed by 9 and wakes up around 8 or 8:30 every morning. She takes one nap during the day and sleeps anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour and 45 minutes. She weaned herself from 2 naps around 12 months or maybe a little earlier. She's a great sleeper and has sttn since about 4 months.

She goes to sleep fully awake but for her nap she is rocked to sleep.

~11 hours @ night. Normally 7:30/8 until 6:45/7 am.

I this she's a little tired though; I'd like to get her down closer to 7.

christie.h · April 2010

Hmmm. I wonder then if I should try putting DS down a little earlier at night, like 7:30 or 8. The problem is that I'm the working parent in our house and evenings and weekends are my time with DS. I don't like the idea of giving up any of that time!

LynnJones · April 2010

6:30pm-7am, usually give or take 30 min on both sides.

cmbrown · April 2010

About 11 hours. Goes to sleep between 8:30-9. Wakes around 7:30.

davis0905 · April 2010

Well, DD is only 11 mos...but I've been lurking on this board because it seems to relate more to us. Anyway she sleeps between 11-12 hrs a night goes to bed around 6:30/7 and sleeps until 6 or 7. She sometimes STTN, sometimes doesn't.

She takes 2 naps...they range anywhere from 40 mins to 2 hrs.

caymanbride · April 2010

At that age, 12-14 hours a night and a 1.5 hour nap daily. Now, his nightime sleep is more like 11-12 hours a night, but naps 2-3 hours daily (one nap). So it's still probably about the same amount of sleep per day.

This for my LO too

NicholeeK · April 2010

At 12 months, usually 11 1/2... sometimes only 11. At almost 15 months, 11 1/2... and 2-3 times a week he gets 12.

ETA: That's his nighttime sleep- goes to bed at 6:30-6:45p, usually wakes up at 6-6:30... he takes one 1 1/2 to 2 hour nap. DH does not see DS at night, they hang out in the morning instead.

lzybeanie · April 2010

Bed between 8 & 9 PM, wakes between 7 & 8 AM. She sleeps until the same time usually regardless of what time she goes to bed.

Her naps are wildly inconsistent. Sometimes she'll take 2 1 1/2 hour naps a day, some days she'll take 1 45 minute nap. She's never been a great napper.

cactus5 · April 2010

My son sleeps between 12-13 hours a night. He goes down around 6:30 and sleeps until 7-7:30.

Quiksilver620 · April 2010

about 10 hours total....from 8pm - 6 am

kabarbanel · April 2010

11-12 hours a night. 2 naps during the day, anywhere from 1.5-2.5 hours each.

This. DD usually takes a long nap in the morning (1.5-2 hours) and an hourish long nap in the evening.

atwtchick · April 2010

DD goes down around 9:00 and usually sleeps until 7:30 or 8:00. On a good day, she'll sleep until 8:30 but that's rare. So, on average, she gets about 11 hours at night and will take 2 naps about an hour each.

TexasLadyBug · April 2010

DS STTN and is asleep by 8pm and wakes up any where between 5:40am- at 6:30am at the latest, but mostly up by 6am. So that is about 10 hours of STTN sleep.

He also takes two naps during the day still each about 1 1/2 long so that brings the total sleep to 12-13 hours a day. Saturday and Sunday he did one nap on his own out of the blue and both were three hours long. I didnt know what to do with all the time, lol. I kept checking on him.

I have tried putting him to bed later and earlier but he still wakes up after he gets a solid 9-10 hours of sleep. As long as he is getting 12 hours in a day I am ok with it.
