How much is your 15-16 month old sleeping

He wakes up at 7 and naps at 10 then gets up at 12 and goes back down at 3:30 and gets up at 5. Bed time is 8. Is he sleeping too much? He just turned 16 months 2 days ago

Oh momma enjoy because my 16 month dropped his second nap and now he's just crazy lol

16 month olds need on average 2-3 hours of daytime sleep.

My daughter normally gets up around 8/8:30, naps from 12ish until 1:30/2 and then doesn't sleep again until 8:30pm
But shes been a little under the weather this week so her whole sleep schedule is wonky 😅

SO jealous about that perfect schedule!!! My kid wakes up between 4-5 every day, it’s driving me crazy. Sometimes he takes one and sometimes he takes 2 naps. Any idea how to make him sleep longer during the night? He usually goes down at 7pm

Keep that rolling as long as he’ll sleep 😂. We are down to one nap a day from 12:30-3 - other than that my daughter is going hard from 6:30 am to- 7 pm 🥹

Mine is 15.5 and she is up 730. Naps 1230-3 and bedtime right before 8.
I’d enjoy the two naps lol

I guess he’s just like me in that way. I LOVE that first nap cause i get to nap too and then the second is my clean up nap lol but I love my sleep too. I was just worried that maybe he was getting too much cause I’ve heard a lot of moms on here say they are trying to drop the second nap. What’s crazy is we never had him on a schedule he just came up with it on his own somehow and now I see a yawn and I know exactly what time it is without looking at a clock lol

My daughter takes a 2 hour nap in the middle of the day. Usually 12-2. Then bedtime is between 7-8pm and she gets up with us at around 6:30-7am

Naps are random in this house. He litterally went to sleep on his on next to me about ten minutes ago or so. First nap of the day. We usually keep the 10pm bedtime, and he wakes up on average around 7 if he wakes up in the middle of the night. We'll likely not have a second nap until later today or at all. Sleeps in the car depending on how long it takes us to go places as well. He has yet to consistently nap or sleep in his own bed.

we were seeing this (super early waking) a few weeks ago and it turned out to be a combo of his molars coming in and needing to switch to one nap. The molars are in now. he’s sleeping til 7/7:30 and once even til 8! He naps from about 12-2:30 and goes to bed at 7. It took a couple weeks for him to be consistent and happy with one nap but no more 5am waking.

Mine has only take one nap since she was 11 months 😅 you’re so lucky

My 15 month old has been taking one nap a day since he was 11 months he wakes up around seven takes a nap at 11 to 230 and then goes to bed at 7:30 and sleeps overnight when he’s done since a few months old so just enjoy it if he’s sleeping, then he’s tired you’re doing a great job mama

I’m jealoussssss. Mine dropped to one, 1-2 hour nap at 12 months old. Also still wakes at least 3 times a night

If he’s sleeping thru the night just fine, should be okay! Sounds like the perfect schedule. Almost similar to my son…he wakes up around 8 most mornings, first nap at 11:30/12 and just depends when he wakes up if he gets another nap. But he’s mostly been taking one nap a day now and going to bed at 8:30/9. He actually does really well having pretty long wake windows before bed so I don’t stress too much over his naps

Wish my 17month old was like that. He's a night mare. He wakes often in the night like some night it's twice other night it's like 10 times. Don't get me wrong most the he's easy to resettle but yeah he's such a restless sleeper and in the day time some times he's awake until dinner time the passes out other times he's naps for 2 hrs or 45 mins depends on his mood and what we are up too he s very much a active little boy and he like to contact sleep more then not he'll sleep in the car and in the pushchair until it stops moving then bam he's a wake lol

Every kid is different if it works for you and him why change it. With that said I would love to have that kind of consistent schedule.

My 22mo still sleeps 12hrs through the night and takes an hour nap mid evening. That’s the schedule she’s been on since 3mo and she does great!

Hour night wakes and 5am get up

Can anyone shed some light as to why on earth my child doesn’t want to sleep??? My eyeballs are bleeding!!

Never been a good sleeper, but the problems always changing. He’s nearly 9 months old.

Beginning of the month he dropped to 2 naps. We could put him to bed at 7pm and he’d get up for the day at 6am, with multiple wake ups every 2/3 hours.

Now we put him down at 7pm, he can do a good 4/5 hour stretch, but come 1/2am he’s up every hour then getting up for the day at 5am. This then completely messes up the day because I can’t keep him awake long enough to even get to 7pm, let alone later.

He has 2 naps, roughly about 1hr10 each but it changed based on when he wakes and trying to get him to a reasonable bed time.

What could be the reason for this? 6am is fine, but 5am is not 😩😩

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Help meeee

!!All advice welcome!! My 5 month old (nearly 6mo) is just not sleeping . Not for naps and not at night . She can’t connect her cycles . We started sleep regression at 3 months but in like how is this nearly been going on for a further 3 months . Like surely not . She has 10 min naps in crib ( which take so much effort ) and maybe 20/30 min naps in my arms/pushchair . She wakes minimum every hour at night with guaranteed false start 20 mins in . I combo feed. I breastfeed her until almost asleep then place her in the next to me crib give her the pacifier and put my hand on her cheek/face for 20 seconds and she drifts off . It’s not really getting her to sleep that’s the issue it’s she just won’t stay asleep . She doesn’t even need to feed much at night usually 1-2 breastfeeds . The rest is comfort wakes needing her pacifier or my hand on her cheek . I’ve looked into sleep associations and independent sleep and I broke the feed to sleep association and rocking and do bedside comforting instead for most wakes which has now lead to my hand being a sleep association on her face . I’m just so exhausted my husband is working mon-fri 9-9 and it’s just me . I haven’t had more than 4 hours in a row since her birth . I can’t get anything done during the day . She is so clingy and cries if I leave room /put her down etc. I love her so much but we both need rest . If anyone has any tips or a routine that could help PLEASE tell me I’ll try anything 🥲❤️❤️

Over supply of milk

I am nearly 5weeks postpartum and I have such a big over supply of BM.
Has anyone donated / sold their supply, if so where do you recommend for this?

Feeds

How many times a night are your little ones getting up? My daughter is every 90-110 minutes. I am absolutely exhausted and don’t know how much more I can cope

I think its fair

Me and my partner agreed to sleep in 1 day of the weekend.
He doesn't find it fair to look after both kids (my 4 year old isnt his) while i sleep so he looks after the baby while i sleep and my toddlers at his dads and ill look after both the next day.
Straightaway it was pretty unfair as i let him sleep in until he wakes up 10-12
He wakes me up when baby starts fussing because he wants milk (doesnt need it)
I cant pump as i dont supply enough.
So i get woken at 9/9:30 to feed baby then i get him sleep then theres no point sleeping in as my toddlers being dropped off.
I also find it unfair that i get both kids to sleep most night, i get my toddler to sleep everyday hes home (4/5days) and i get my baby to sleep most nights with the exception of maybe twice a month as his dad struggless then about 95% of his thru the day naps.
I have also been unwell for a few months (tumor scare) and am waiting 18 weeks to see a specialist so im obviously petrified for that, so unbelievably tired and alot of aches and pains, specifically these pounding headaches ive been having.
After i had been up til 11:30 getting both kids to sleep lastnight and my partner falling asleep at 10 then him ignoring the baby cries all morning until my toddler woke up im fed up slammed to door and rold him not to expect to sleep in unless he gets the baby to sleep the night b4.
I keep having issues with him not feeling the wet from baby being sick or weeing himself or being able to smell it do about 98% of the time hes given to me i have to clean him up n change him.
Including at night, we agreed my partner would change nappies (1 a night at 5am) while i feed (2,4,5,6:30) but every night when i get him hes pissed through and my partner gets annoyed when i wake him up n moan about it.
Then the morning after hes annoyed at how much washing there is (thats his job) and moans about how often i change myself (baby constantly shits thru and sicks on me) and baby
Honestly im just so tired all the time
