So, a child who has overtired too much will become unusually moody and irritable, but, nevertheless, he can not fall asleep on his own. If such episodes are present in the life of the baby too often, he will begin to lag behind in development from his peers and, in addition, he may have certain health problems.
A young mother should understand when exactly the time comes when the crumb needs to be put to bed. Of course, the body of each baby is individual, but there are certain norms for the duration of rest for each age, which should be adhered to at least relatively. In this article, we will tell you how much a child should sleep in 6 months, so as not to experience discomfort associated with fatigue throughout the day.
How much should a baby sleep in 6 months?
The total duration of a six-month-old baby during the day, normally ranges from 14 to 15 hours. Meanwhile, this value can be a little more or slightly less, depending on the individual needs and characteristics of the organism of a tiny organism.
The lion's share of the total rest time is a night's sleep. As a rule, it lasts about 11 hours, but this does not mean that the baby can sleep for such a long period of time and not wake up at the same time. Almost all babies at the age of 6 months get up 2-3 times a night or even a little more to eat. In addition, babies may be disturbed by erupting teeth and other problems that impair quality and reduce the duration of night sleep.
The duration of sleep during the day usually is about 3.5-4 hours, but it is at this time in the life of the crumbs, a transition period occurs, when it is reconstructed from one day regimen to another.
How many times does the child sleep at 6 months in the afternoon?
Before the beginning of the second half of life, the vast majority of infants have to lay down for sleep 3 times. Meanwhile, after the performance of 6 months, many babies are no longer required to rest so often. Boys and girls begin to gradually be reconstructed for 2 days rest, and the duration of each of them is from 1.5 to 2 hours.
