How much sleep does 3month old need

So my LO has been sleeping through the night and staying awake most of the day with maybe 3-4 power naps no longer than an hour.

The past couple of days she’s been sleeping even more than that! 8-9 during the night. And then another 3-4 hours after being awake for max 2 hours. With 2-3 naps lasting anywhere between 30 mins to 2 hrs…

Should I be worried about the amount of sleep she’s now’s having or is this just a rare case of a baby sleeping well. I know sleep regression is on its way so is this early stages before all sleeping schedules are a mess again 😂

Any help is appreciated!!!!

I'd enjoy it while you've got it! As long as baby is having enough feeding/nappies/gaining weight when she is awake to make up for it x

Mine sleeps through too and I literally can’t believe it. As long as nappies are ok I think it’s fine? But it worried me too, especially as my boy had less wet nappies. But he’s ok now so I’ll see how he goes on

We are having plenty of wet nappies she’s been gaining good weight but hasn’t been checked in 4 weeks so I don’t have exact progress but I can tell by how heavy she is now and also how many clothes she’s outgrown. She went from not sleeping so much to sleeping loads 🤦🏽‍♀️❤️ guess I’ll just make the most of it then

My baby slept perfectly for the first 4 months then it all went downhill and he started waking every hour.. I PRAY this isn't the case for you!

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

I'm open to anything else to start teaching him to read and write. He's 3!

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

Naps

How is everyone doing for naps?

Little one is 9 months old and will have 2 half hour naps and one solid 1 hour - 2 hour nap a day

Then settles for night around 9pm. Wakes for a feed around 3:30 then sleeps until 6-7
