Do you wake your baby up from their naps if they nap too long?

Question

Or do you wake them up after a certain amount of time? 
My 6 month old sleeps 30-45 minutes most of the time, but the odd time I have to wake him up after 2 hours...
Should I be doing this? Or should I just let him sleep?

Answer

If my daughter falls asleep in the evening almost close to night time I wake her up cause I don’t want her up all night lol cause she will stay up all night 😭

Answer

Mine is still a newbie so I know it’s not completely comparable but we don’t wake her up at all. Sleep is so important developmentally for babies just as much as food. I’ve found if I wake her from her naps she actually sleeps worse at night and eats terribly too because she’s just irritable.

Answer

We always just let our son sleep. It never effected his bedtime,

Answer

I’ve always just let my daughter sleep when she wants too. We didn’t do any sort of sleep training with her and she eventually put herself on pretty good schedule. She sleeps 3-4hours during the day with all of her naps and still sleeps around 11hours at night

Answer

At 6 months waking her up at the 6 month mark is perfectly fine especially when your trying to establish a schedule because most babies at that age take two naps and sleep during the night but you could have her take one big nap during the day rather then multiples and sleep during the night if you prefer that!
