how is your lo napping?

So my little girl can only stay awake for an hour, then naps an hour. So basically she takes 6 naps between 6am and 6pm. But my friends baby only has 2 naps of 45min each! Wat is the recommended nap vs awake time for our babies age?

Our nap times are messed up currently from teething but generally aproximately 4 naps for a total of 5 hours maximum nap time. She sleeps 11+ hours at night usually.

My LO sleeps about 9-10 hours at not get. Up until last week she was taking 3-4 naps a day. She wakes up at about 6 and would nap at 9, 12, and 3, and sometimes would go to sleep about an hour after her first wake up. The 9 nap was about 2 hours, the noon nap around 2 hour and then the 3 nap around 3 hours. But last week she started having some trouble and her naps are only about 45 minute each. I believe she has a little bit of sleep regression and hopefully we will get back to longer naps soon.

My baby boy naps 3-5 times a day depending if we are home. Sometimes Three out of five are 30 minutes naps and at least one is at least an hour to two hours. But right now teething has affected his napping a bit but at least he is still napping!

LO naps for 30 min to 1 hour 3-4 times a day. He's up every 2 hours at night.

LO sleeps thru the night 9 hrs. Naps are erratic and sometimes non-existent. Yesterday, she had zero naps, although she was very tired. She kept fighting it and fighting it. She probably napped a total of 30 minutes. Today, she's had three naps of about 45 minutes each. As long as she's sleeping thru the night, I can handle no naps.

My LO sleeps about 9/10hrs at night sometimes a lil longer. After being up in the morning for about 3/4 hours he's ready for nap and will nap for about an hr to a hr n a half. Then later in the evening he will take another hr nap. Somedays he might take a lil cat nap between his two big naps. But when I'm at work and his with his dad he doesn't do an evening long nap he'll only sleep like 20mins for him.

Well we used to have it great with our wee girl. She used to sleep 10+ hrs straight at night with 3-4 2 hr naps during the day. But the day she hit 3 months she started teething and now she still sleeps 10 hrs at night but wakes for a feeding around 2 and then just wakes periodically to whine throughout the night. And he 3-4 naps a day still happen except they went from being 2 hrs to 10-20min naps. We are now at 4 1/2 months and it's been killer. I'm so sleep deprived right now that Doing laundry dishes and showering is a big deal to me daily. She just cut her first tooth today...... I really hope every tooth she gets isn't like this. It's a good thing she has an adorable smile or else I'd be a goner. Lol!!

Same here.

My LO sleeps 11-12 hours at night, waking 1-2 times to eat. She naps 2-3 times a day and only 30-45 mins! She used to nap 1-2 hours but once she hit 3 months, literally that day it all changed. However, she wasn't sleeping at night at all, up every 2-3 hours and wouldn't go down till 11pm and now she goes down at 6:30pm and isn't up till 7am so I'll take the short naps for good sleep at night!

I don't think that there is a recommendation- just 14-16hrs sleep minimum in total.

My little one sleep 8hrs at night and has 4 naps through the day she normally goes down for 1-2 hours with 2 hours between naps.

She's teething at the moment so I'm lucky if her naps last 45mins.

This is a helpful guide!

My LO sleeps about 10 hours at night. Her first nap is 2 hours after she wakes up and is usually only 30 min. Then she takes a nap in the early afternoom for an hour or more. After that she might nap 1 or 2 more times varying in length before bed.
