How long does ur LO stay awake between naps?

gingajewel · Sep 29th, 2010, 07:49 AM

Hi All,

My LO is currently fast asleep :-) Cuddling up to her toy giraffe (looking very cute!!)

Just wandering how old ur LO's are and how long they are awake between naps?

Megan is 20 weeks and goes between 1.5hours and 2 hours ( we do not have a set routine)

On a night she sleeps from 8pm until 9am with one feed.

Just curious to no!!

Thanks

Chloe is a couple of weeks older than your LO but wakes between 530-7am in the morning. In the day she sleeps every 1 1/2 - 2 hours for about 45minutes. She then goes to bed at 630pm, she sometimes sleeps through but normally wakes once.

Evie can stay awake between 1 and 3 hours depending on where we are and what we are doing.

She will sleep between 1-3 hours, again, depending on what we are doing.

She is generally a good night sleeper doing about 10 hours straight

But like you we have no set rouine

Today i was told Meg should only have about one nap a day for an hour and should b awake between 4-5 hours at a time! WTF??!! 2 Hours and her eyes are all red and she is crying because she wants to go to sleep!!!!!

Omar started to drop his 3rd nap at 7.5 mnths. Earlier he used to sleep through for 12-13 hrs during the night & 4 hrs naps. So around 17 hrs of sleep. He still takes 2 naps 1-1.5 hrs each & sleeps for 11-12 hrs at night. I guess ur LO is doing great hun. Omar couldnt stay awake for more than 1.5-2 hrs between naps at this age. He's a very active & alert boy & doesnt sit still when he's awake. Sleep is good for their developement at this age xx

Ugh ignore your HV, they only ever give you their personal opinions and usually it's rubbish.

Maya used to go 2 hours but it's getting longer now, it's anything from 2 to 4 hours really. She used to have three naps a day but now it's only two, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

Your HV is totally full of crap!

My son is 6mths and he gets super angry after 3hrs. Even a 1 year old takes 2 naps a day usually. Your HV must have never had any kids and sounds terribly misinformed.

We are only at 16 weeks, but Carter can only stand to be awake 1 1/2 to 2 hrs. Your baby will let you know forget what your hv said, they dont know your baby!
