Ask:
How much sleep do your children get and what ages?
My 18 mo only sleeps about 7-9 hrs a night, then a 2 hour nap later. I read toddlers are supposed to have 14 hours of JUST night-time sleep. That sounds outrageous to me.
Answer:
My 6 mo dd does not sleep anywhere near the "recommended" amount. I would love her to sleep more, but she just doesn't do it. She ususally takes a 1 1/2-2 hour nap during the day and sleeps around 9 hours at night (sometimes waking up a couple of times). But she seems happy and healthy - so I can't worry too much about it. I am hoping though that she will get more sleep sometime soon. I would love to sleep more also!!!

Answer:
My almost 3yr old DD sleeps about 10-11hrs at night, often times moving to our bed some time in the early morning. In the afternoon, she takes 1-3hr nap. She is one of those toddlers that definitely still needs a nap. When she doesn't, we usually have her go to bed early (b/w 7-7:30p, sometimes even as early as 6:30p).
Answer:

I think it just really depends on the kid. I have on child that has never really slept long long hours and another that would sleep all day long if I let him.
