Napping too long, do I wake baby up?

Question

I never thought I would have this issue 😂 my catnapper has started taking long naps again! But maybe too long? After a rough night of waking every hour, she’s now been napping for 2.5 hours. I feel like 3 hours is getting too long for a nap. Should I gently wake her? She’s almost 21 weeks.

Answer

I’m just here to say.....I want these kind of problems 😅

Answer

TakingCaraBabies just talked about this one IG today. This is what she says.

Answer

My baby is 5 months this week and just started taking longer naps too! I usually wake her at 2.5 hours just because I read online than anything over 3 hours can affect their nighttime sleeping. 2.5 hours has been working well for her still being able to sleep at night!

Answer

This has just happened to me and I’m debating to let him sleep or wake up but I reckon the leap and growth spurts he needs the sleep! Prob won’t let it go much longer than 3 hours Though?

Answer

My son did 4 hours the other day!! I just left him.

Answer

I wake up if her total naps for the day is closing in on 4 hrs, or if we’re getting close to bedtime.

Answer

At this age she could be going through a number of things; teething, growth spurt, etc. So I say let baby sleep. I'd love for mine to sleep that long lol. Get a nap too! 😴😴
