2 month old and sleep

[Googiepie]

How much does your two month old sleep during the day? How much awake time between naps? If your little one sttn, how long did they sleep at night?

Well I have a 22 month old and an 11 week old.
My 11 week old is fantastic at sleeping (same as her brother) she wakes up at about 8.30-9am-ish, then she has a bottle (7oz) has a nappy change then usually goes back to sleep until about 10-10.30ish, she stays awake an hour then at 11.30-12ish she has another bottle and so this continues all day. She usually goes 3hours between feeds in the day then has a bit of a nap after each one, (as best she can do with a 22 month old brother saying her name right in her face)! She does sleep through a lot of his tantrums and screaming so she does quite well really, then at bed time she had a nappy change and gets into her baby gro, and has her last bottle at 11.00pm and is usually asleep on me at 11.30pm. I leave her 20 mins so she falls into a deeper sleep then carry her upstairs to her Moses basket next to our bed, then she sleeps right thru until 8.30-9ish the following morning. Xxxx

Since she was born nearly 3 months ago, she's only waken up once or twice at night, sometimes she will sleep through the night. She's usually knocked out by 9. Sometimes, she will wake for a feed at around 2 and 5am then back to sleep til 8. She's usually wide awake for most of the day with 10 minute naps every now and then. She sleeps a lot in the day when we go on long car rides or if the weather is really warm.

My DD can only last about 1.5 hours between naps. Length of naps varies between little 20 minute catnaps and 2 hours.

She doesn't sttn and probably won't any time soon so no help there.

DS is two months today, he goes down in the evening between 8:30 and 10:30, no matter what time he goes down he wakes around 4 for a feed. Usually manage to get him back to sleep for another hour and a half but sometimes he decides he's up for the day. He naps about two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon and sometimes an hour or so in the evening too.

My DD who is 9 and a half weeks is only capable of being awake for around an hour in the daytime before she starts crying with tiredness. She fights sleep like a demon and needs lots of help napping. I try to get her to sleep in her car seat with rocking/dark room/white noise but if that doesn't work I let her sleep on me, in my arms or in the sling. In her car seat she sleeps 45 minutes max, and usually wakes crying. On me she can sleep longer but if she does usually it involves at least one waking, crying, in the middle of the nap and I have to stand up and rock her back off again.
At night we take her up around 7pm and settle her in her cot after a bf. It can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours to settle her (pick up, rock, put down) but once she is fully asleep she sleeps well and bfs at around midnight, 3am and 6am, going straight back down each time without a problem, and then gets up for the day at 7-8am.
I would love her to drift off to sleep on her own in the day but she doesn't. Not even in the car or pram. She's just like her brother was, and I'm a fairly crappy sleeper (wired/insomnia) so I know where they get it from!
