    Hi... I know stickys for suggested # of hours of sleep available but really, are these accurate? My twinkies are almost 18 months and they sleep more than 12 hours. They sleep typically just 11 hours at night?! And I feel like other moms are on the same schedule.... sleep 11-12 hours at night and 2-3 during day. Anyone else? Is there such a thing as too much sleep?

    Mine sleep 12 hours at night and take a 2-3 hour nap during the day. So their total sleep is between 14-15 hours a day, I'm not complaining about that. :)

    Like with most things, the # of hours a day is an average. If they are sleeping that much and seem happy, it's not too much!

    Mine sleep about 11 hours at night and 1-2 hours during the day, so I guess they're average. :)

    On a good stretch, mine sleep 11-12 hours a night and 1.5 - 2.5 hours during the day. Lately, though - it's been a lot rougher. Not sure if it's related to teething or not, but I miss the old days of a few weeks ago when they consistently were sleeping the numbers mentioned in the first sentence :).

    We're lucky to get 10 hours out of our boys at night...though they do consistently take 2.5/3 hour naps.

    I don't think it sounds like too much sleep...just be glad you got "sleepers". ;)

    Since they went to one nap, ours have always slept 11-12 hours at night and 1.5-2 hrs at nap. I think it's great to have good sleepers.
