Educational estimate only. Not a diagnosis or care plan.
Total sleep needs drop gradually as babies grow. Night sleep and nap counts shift — especially around four months, nine months, and the transition to one nap.
These ranges are educational, not a sleep-training plan. Every family is different; talk to your pediatrician if sleep feels unsafe or severely disrupted.
Frequently asked questions
- How much sleep does my baby need?
- Total sleep includes naps and night sleep. Ranges are wide because temperament and development differ.
- How many naps?
- Nap count usually drops from many short naps to two, then one, over the first two years.
- Is this sleep training?
- No — we show typical needs, not methods. Training decisions are personal and should follow safe sleep guidance.
- Can I log sleep in the app?
- Yes — after sign-in, track naps and nights on a shared timeline with your tribe.
- When should I call a doctor?
- If your baby is difficult to wake, not feeding, or you worry about breathing or color — seek care promptly.
