Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Nap question

How many times a day does your LO nap and for how long each time?

Re: Nap question

  • Usually 3. Occassionally 4 if the first 3 were too short. Naps are at least 45 minutes in length but sometimes 1-1.5 hours. It's different every day!!  I just follow his cues :)

  • We have had a nap strike this week but usually my LO does 2 to 3 a week, and they can last anywhere from 1.5 hours to 2 hours. Like PP said, I also follow LO's cues.

  • Usually three naps, but his naps are waaaay short (35-45 min) so some days I'm able to fit in a 4th nap before "nap cut-off" at 5 pm. I usually shoot for 2 hrs between wake ups and laying down for nap time.
  • 2 naps. 1hr in the morning and 2hrs in the afternoon.

  • Short naps here too. Average is about 30 minutes. Usually 4-5 a day. He does sleep from 8pm to 6:30-7 am though.
  • It depends usually 3 but sometimes 4. Naps are anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours, but those long ones are getting rare these days.

  • Two or three About 15min a piece, if any at all. My LO has never been a napper, buts sleeps through the night.
  • 2-4 x 30 minute naps, as well as 2 x sleeping in car on 45 minutes commute to and from DC.  Sleeps 7:30 pm to 6:00 am, with occasionally 1 wake up around 2 am.
  • Glad to hear my LO isn't the only short napper! I sometimes get worried he's not sleeping long enough during his naps to get the rest he needs for his brain.
  • 3 naps that range from 30 mins - 3 hours. 
  • Usually 3-4 naps approx 40 minutes each but doesn't go to bed for the night til 10 and he wakes up like 4 times a night.
  • 3-4 30 minute naps. Sleeps 6:30-6 with usually 2 wake ups
