How much night sleep should I expect from 8mo?
« on: March 10, 2011, 06:47:27 am »
Hi there,

My LO has always slept til 7am but in the last fortnight has changed it to 6.10, 7am works so much better with me returning to work soon!

Just wondered how much night sleep ishould expect from her now, and if I need to move bedtime? She generally has dropped her catnap on the days we get 2 90 min naps so do I need a later bedtime to fit in a catnap?

Thanks xx

What time is bedtime? How many hours are they sleeping overnight?

I would say that is totally normal really. My LO does 10.5-11hrs, but often less A's I am trying to work out how much daytime sleep she really needs.

Plus she is teething, and I have found that affects wake up tome with both my LOs.

I'd you have just dropped the CN you may find it soon settles down, and it is a bit of OT before bedtime.
