What helps at this age
- Cap the morning nap at about an hour if the afternoon nap is short.
- Walking and first words can disturb sleep for a few days.
- Consistent, calm responses to night wakings help them settle faster.
These are typical ranges. If your baby seems unusually sleepy, is hard to wake, snores loudly, pauses in breathing, or isn't feeding or growing well, talk to your pediatrician.
