How long are everyone else’s wake windows for their 5 month old. My little one has just gone 5 months and his wake windows are still 1.5-2 hours, should they be longer now?

My little one is really fighting naps at the minute but I know he can only cope with 2 hours/2.5 hours before he gets over tired and grumpy. Whether he naps or not when he’s tired is anyone’s guess at the minute but after that period of time you can just tell he’s tired and then continues to get grumpy and cross. Hes 4 and half month xxxx

My wee girls wake windows are 1.5-2 hours and then 2.5ish before bed

Some days my boy only manages 1 hour x

My little girl is nearly 5 months, the morning one varies depending on what time she wakes up, can be only an hour or an hour and a half. After lunch is a couple of hours. After her afternoon nap she is normally awake for around 3 hours, starts to get a bit cranky after 2 and a half so we give her a bath to distract her before her last feed and then bed.

Really fighting naps at the moment so anything from 1.5-3.5 hours!!!

Like clockwork she get sleepy at 2 hours

3 hours roughly but can depend on what she's been doing while awake and how long the sleep was before x

My boys wake windows depends on what we are doing I’ve noticed if he’s had quite a fully activity wake window with playing, songs, socialising etc it can be as short as an hour to an hour and half before he needs another nap/cat nap sometimes only 20 mins will do it. But if we have a slightly less stimulating wake window where hes maybe on the floor on his own and just entertaining himself with his toy or practicing rolling etc can do about 2-2.5 hours before needing a nap xx

He’s pretty clockwork, 2hrs! 2.5 if we’re out and about but he will start getting cranky towards 2.5

Mine are 1.5 hours in the day time , last one is 2.5 hours x
