How many hours at night?

ReeseM · June 2011

Does your LO sleep? Not sttn necessarily, but just total hours. Like DD gets up 1-2 times a night, but sleeps about 12 hours, 7:30-7, give or take.

I am wondering if this is not the norm for this age, and could explain why her naps are so short, for the most part.

I am not looking to change it, just wondering if others are sleeping 12 hours at this age.

DD is USUALLY down at 9 ish, then wakes once, then up at 6. That would be about....9 hours total. Tonight she was asleep at 6:30 then I woke her a tiny bit to put her into her bassinet so I fed her to sleep again, but I'll count 630 as bedtime and see how that goes.

DD does nap about 2-3 hours in the morning too. Usually after being up for at least an hour.

about 9-10

DD sleeps about 10 hours and then goes right back down for another 1-3 hours.

Our DD usually sleeps about 10-11 hours, and then takes one 1-2 hour nap in the morning, and then only 1 or 2 short cat naps in the afternoon. She'll almost never sleep longer than a half hour in the afternoon.

He sleeps from 7 until 7 or 8 usually but he wakes often still. We usually bedshare from 12 or 1 until morning.

LO will usually sleep about 11 hours at night with 1 or 2 wake ups. So maybe 8-7. Then he is awake for 2 hours and naps for two hours. So maybe 9-11. Then he is awake for about two or 3 hours and naps for another 1.5- 2 hours. So maybe 1:30-3:30. He use to take an evening nap, but now refuses. So he is then awake from 3:30-7:30 or 8.

She sleeps from about 7:30/8pm-7/7:30am, waking up once usually. I think my DD naps like yours- she takes 2 shorter (45min) naps, and one longer one (2hrs), but the longer one usually comes when I rock her back to sleep after the first 40min. My "goal" is to have her on 2 naps around 6months, and then hopefully they will be a little longer. Not sure if it will go as perfect as I think it in my mind though;)

Sleeps from 9-5 or 6 am, then sleeps after a bottle until about 830-930am

Usually to bed about 7 or 8pm and wakes up around 6 or 7, is up for an hour or 2, then will go back to sleep around 9, then I get an early afternoon nap around 12 or 1 and another around 4 or 5 but those 3 naps can be anywhere from 20 to 45 minutes. Very seldom are they longer.

During his 11 hour stretch of sleep he'll wake about 3 times and one of those he can be up for about 45 minutes to an hour (around 5am).

It's very sporadic though and no 2 days/nights are the same.

DS sleeps 10-12 hours at night (he doesn't get up at night anymore either). And he usually take 4 30 minute naps per day.

10 - 11 hours, waking up twice.

About 11/12 hours.... wakes for a feeding after about 8 hours, then sleeps for another 3 to 4.

She just started taking a 1.5-2hr nap in the morning and 2 45min naps in the afternoon

Usually 11 -12/night. He goes down around 11, wakes up to eat between 6 and 7, then goes back to sleep until 10 - 11.

He also naps terribly during the day - we get three to four 30 - 45 minute naps if I'm lucky.

erbear · June 2011

7:30/8 to 6/6:30 so 10ish hours. Her naps are all over the place...sometimes 1-3 hours, sometimes 30-45 minutes but still 3-4 naps
