There's a sleep regression in most babies around 4m that can affect naps and make them super short. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-292115 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 13:31:37 +0000 Clementine 292115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine takes 3 cap naps (30-40 mins at a time!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291796 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 10:23:44 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 291796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine was taking 3 naps at that time. 2-1 hr and 1-2 hr nap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291787 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 10:17:42 +0000 winniebee 291787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meredithNYC: He's officially been napping 3 hours in his swing. Grunting and smiling and I know he's getting up soon. This is by far his longest nap in 3 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291742 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 09:36:00 +0000 meredithNYC 291742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, if it's working then I would say definitely let it go! There is nothing better than a long morning nap, in my opinion - unless you have stuff to do, in which case it can become a little annoying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291735 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 09:30:06 +0000 winniebee 291735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meredithNYC: I'm tempted to stop the swing (I know, I know, motion sleep is not good....) but I figure a long motion nap is better than a 40 minute motionless nap.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291732 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 09:26:59 +0000 meredithNYC 291732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: That's funny - we are at the 2 hour, 10 minute mark right now, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291729 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 09:25:43 +0000 winniebee 291729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@c.sassy: Yahoo! Right now, we are going on 2 hours, 10 minutes....in the swing...whatever! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291699 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 09:09:16 +0000 meredithNYC 291699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 4 months old and she usually takes 3 naps, with the longest being the morning nap, which can last 2-2.5 hours.

Right now we're 1hr 10min into a nap... the longest nap we've gotten without me holding her in 2 weeks!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291663 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 08:38:02 +0000 winniebee 291663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>T is 4 months and it depends on the day, but he always takes 3 naps and most days takes 4. Morning nap is usually 2-2.5 hrs and the rest are the dreaded 40 minute nap (or the even more dreaded 20 minute nap). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291649 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 08:26:17 +0000 prettylizy 291649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2-3 right now, but she sleeps in lately to almost 10AM!! I think I need to move up her bedtime :S </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291569 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 07:21:00 +0000 MamaBehr 291569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He takes somewhere between three and four naps a day. The longest one, in the afternoon, tends to be about an hour long. But I'm so glad to see so many other Moms dealing with this because I thought I was doing something wrong!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291561 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 07:14:23 +0000 Sammyfab 291561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 4 months we stuck with 3 naps a day. If they were all crap naps then we did an early bedtime (as early as 5:30). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291538 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 06:41:00 +0000 cvbee 291538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3 naps consistently at 4, going-on-5 months here </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291498 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 01:52:50 +0000 Rosie Girl 291498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She takes about 3-4 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291494 Wed, 12 Sep 2012 01:10:11 +0000 loveisstrange 291494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If she is taking long naps (2 hours) that day, 2.

Lately, each nap is anywhere from 45 to 90 minutes. Occasionally, on a 2 nap day, she'll take a 2 hour nap, but I'm never prepared, and don't end up getting a ton done, because I expect only 45 ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-naps-does-your-4-6-month-old-take#post-291417 Tue, 11 Sep 2012 21:44:49 +0000 Springtime 291417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO takes about 4-5 naps during the day, however they aren't very long, only like 30-45 mins =/ </p>
