But now at 9.5 months, he stays up for 3 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1283782 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 10:50:31 +0000 MsLipGloss 1283782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>15 months and right around 5 hours is her max. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1283607 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 10:06:01 +0000 daniellemybelle 1283607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 2 months tomorrow and 1.5 hrs is usually when the yawns start but she fights naps so hard that she is usually awake at least 2 hrs. We often skip the last nap before bed &amp; do bath or books between the last two feedings instead, and she doesn't get too cranky. That's usually a 3.5 hr stretch &amp; then she is really tired. She does take micro naps while nursing but I don't count those. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1281398 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 08:41:10 +0000 MapleMoose 1281398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 months and 2-4 hours awake between naps because she fights daytime sleep. And her naps are 20-40 minutes long. My days are exhausting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1281320 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 05:59:05 +0000 loveisstrange 1281320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>20 months and about 4-5 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1281318 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 05:29:28 +0000 scotchbonnet 1281318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Four months old and only now doing about 1h15m even though she can stretch it to 2+ hours if we are out and about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1281314 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 03:09:08 +0000 Grace 1281314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine's three months too and I have to start getting her down at 55 min and she's asleep at 1 hr 15 min. Mind you, she only takes 35-45 min naps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1281302 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 02:38:50 +0000 delight 1281302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 4 months and we are just starting to get an hour and 15 mins of awake time. It has been 45 minutes to an hour for awhile. I also feel like there isn't much awake time! It also makes for lots of naps. We just went from 5 to 4 naps in the last couple weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1281275 Sat, 14 Dec 2013 01:12:52 +0000 fairy 1281275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 months and usually awake 2-4hrs </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279439 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 10:58:19 +0000 Rockies11 1279439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 5 months and she is exactly 3 hours - gets up at 6 am, naps 9, 12, 3 and in bed at 6. And I didn't schedule her or anything, that is just how it wound up. She was about the same as yours at 3 months - lots of naps, quite a lot of short naps and a couple of hour + naps. She also went to bed later then - around 10 pm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279423 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 10:54:22 +0000 Freckles 1279423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@illumina: That sounds pretty normal to me! I think my LO's awake time went up to 90 minutes at the 12 week mark. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279212 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 10:03:41 +0000 edelweiss 1279212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO's awake period around 3 months was about the same--you're right, it's really not a lot of time! i felt like his ideal awake time was shorter than other babies for quite a while. even now, at 11 months, 4 hours is really pushing it--2 to 3 is much safer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279200 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 10:00:06 +0000 Alivoo01 1279200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 4.5 months and he's awake for 1.5-2 hours before he's ready to nap again. He can be up for 4 hours before bed time, but he's pretty darn tired by then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279057 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 09:14:08 +0000 illumina 1279057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: hers is similar right before bed--she might stay awake 2hrs or so before she's ready to go to sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279029 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 09:04:05 +0000 Bookish 1279029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>G is 5.5 months and she usually goes 2-3 hours between naps. She's always been a ridiculously awake baby :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279025 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 09:03:42 +0000 hilsy85 1279025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the longest time my LOs awake time was 45-1 hour--all the way up til 4.5 months or so! Now at 13.5 months he CAN stay up pretty much all day--but it's not pretty! Ideal awake time is 3-4 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279019 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 09:02:06 +0000 Foodnerd81 1279019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>C is 4.5 months and it's not much longer. It does stretch our throughout the day- so first nap is between 1-1.5 hours after wakeup-- all we do is change, eat, snuggle for a limit me bit and back down. After that, depending on nap lengths, it's usually 1.5-2 hours, sometime 3 before bed but she's really getting tired then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279010 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 09:00:10 +0000 Rubies 1279010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is 9 weeks old and her max awake is 2 hours but that is seriously pushing it. Normally, 1 hour or 1.5 hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/age-of-lo-and-max-awake-time#post-1279004 Fri, 13 Dec 2013 08:57:58 +0000 illumina 1279004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm curious. LO is 3mths and after 1hr15 she starts to yawn and it's time to get her down for a nap. It feels like there's not a whole lot of time between feeding and napping. </p>
