Post by: nilly on April 13, 2009, 17:55:54 pm

wondering if there is a growth spurt at 2.5 years old? my son is sleeping 11.5 hours at nights, and 2.5-3 for his nap!!!! i am not complaining, just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?

Yeah, my dd is 2.5 and sleeps the same as your son.  She has just always needed an above average amount of sleep.  When she gets less than this I can tell in her tempermant!  However, my ds, who is 8 months sleeps the same total # of hours!  He has always needed a little below average for sleep amounts!  Crazy how they are all different!
