waht is your awke time for 2 -3 month old?

[Eden's Mum]

Just wondering. for Noah it is 1.5 hours at a push. sometime he can't go past an hour, sometimes he can stretch to two but that is rare.

[DeannaB]

That's pretty normal.  My ds who is 3.5 months or so is the same.  He is often going 2 hours ok, but not always.

My DS goes anywhere from 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours, usually he's happier to go less, about 1 hour is probably the most common. This is perfectly normal. They'll stay up more as they mature.

1 hour to 2 hours.  Usually about 1.5 is the average.  He is 3 months.

[Nina's Mommy]

Nina is 12 1/2 weeks and she is usually up for 1.5 hours. Sometimes 1.75 and sometimes 1.25. I'd like to slowly extend her to at least 1.5 hours and usually 1.75 since she is on 4-hour schedule - but not sure best way to do so without her getting overtired.

[Luke-n-Me]

My lo is starting to go a minimum of 1 hour and sometimes up to 2, with 1.5 hours most common.  She was 45 minute napping for a few days, so I extended her awake time and it helped.  Sounds like our little ones are right on track!

[Ennypen]

William stays away for about 1hr 30 mins average unless he's not feeling well.

Today he's got an earache I think and he's been napping on and off all morning so far and really doesnt want any more awake time than time to eat his bottle and then have a nappy change.

About 1.5 hours on average.

my lo in 18 weeks old (4 months and a bit) and she can stay awake anywhere between 1.20hr to 1.45hr.

[Mom to M&M]

Marisa is 11 weeks tomorrow and usually is awake for about 1.5 hours. I'd like to start stretching it a bit but don't want to make her overtired. What are some good awake time activities at this age? She doesn't have much interest in toys yet...

[Nee]

When you say awake time does this include feeding?  So from the moment they are awake from a nap to the time they go back down for a nap.  If I extend her awake time, will she nap longer? or if I expend nap times will she stay awake longer?

[corrina01]

When you say awake time does this include feeding?

Yes it does.  So the A time is from when they get up from their nap to when they go down for the next nap.

How is your DD? What A time is she currently having? What are her naps like?

[Nee]

she is awake for about 45 min to 1 hour and will nap for 1 hour to 1.5 hours.  I was wondering what do you do if your DD wakes up before the next feed.  Do you attempt to put her back to sleep.  I have been feeding her at 2.5 hours instead of 3 if she wakes up.  Should I attempt to stretch her nap if this happends?

[corrina01]

How old is your DD?

1.5hours is normal sleep time, if she wakes at the 1hr mark, I would do shush/pat to try and send her back off to sleep.

[Grace's Mom]

My DD is 12 weeks old and stays awake 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes.  We usually have her in her crib at about the 1 hour and 15 minute mark and she falls asleep by 1 hour and 30 minutes (she doesn't always stay asleep  _. 

Hopefully in a month or so she will be able to move to a 4 hour EASY and we can keep her awake for 2 hours and have her sleep for 2 hours.
