REALLY long naps?

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months
My DS just turned 7 months, and also just started sleeping on his belly after we weaned him from the sleep suit to a sleep sack. He's been sleeping through the night usually about 9 hours, but today, he got up late,  took a 3 hour nap, and later another 2 hour one. Basically was awake for like 5 hours all day! I know not a horrible problem to have but as a neurotic 1st time mom I am wondering, is this normal? TIA

    My son had a couple of days like this. Could be a growth spurt. Probably nothing to be concerned about, but keep an eye on him incase hes coming down with something. The one time my DS did this, he ended up getting a pretty bad cold the next day. He was obviously already feeling pooped from it. Best of luck.

    Count your blessings. DS naps for 30 minutes at a time and that's a good nap.

    He's probably just growing!

    Totally normal.  My son naps an 1-1.5hr but he sleeps 6p-9a most days waking to eat once around 5a and then has 2 naps during the day as well so his total awake time isn't much different.  He's 6 months.
