down to 1 nap!

In: Personal Experiences

26 Feb 2009

brandon is almost one year old (next week), and in the past couple of days, he has been down to 1 nap! it’s crazy! it seems like just yesterday when he was sleeping every 2 hours.

according to this chart on babycenter, he should still be taking 2 naps, but i know all kids are different. he does sleep about 10 – 11 hours at night. he’s always been slightly lower than the numbers on this chart for total sleep, but he is such a happy baby that i don’t worry about him not getting enough. plus, the article says these numbers are plus or minus 2 hours.

how much sleep does your baby get?

Age Nighttime Sleep Daytime Sleep * Total Sleep
1 month 8 1/2 7 (3) 15 1/2
3 months 10 5 (3) 15
6 months 11 3 1/4 (2) 14 1/4
9 months 11 3 (2) 14
12 months 11 1/4 2 1/2 (2) 13 3/4
18 months 11 1/4 2 1/4 (1) 13 1/2
2 years 11 2 (1) 13
3 years 10 1/2 1 1/2 (1) 12
