Some babies are super sly and won’t let on that they’re tired. When you notice baby rubbing their eyes, they are overtired– make sure to be quick to put an overtired baby to sleep asap! After a lot of research and my own personal experience, I’m a firm believer that picking up on babies cues as to when they’re tired during the day works well to prevent them from getting over tired.Ī 3 month old typically takes around 3-4 naps during the day, which means your little one will likely be snoozing between 4-7 hours each day.Īdditionally, you should watch for cues like pulling at their ears, zoning out and not really paying attention, making their hands into a fist, or flailing their arms or legs. Naps are more consolidated now, but still somewhat erratic. Here’s the 3 month old schedule that worked like a charm for my baby:Ĩ:30 am: down for first nap, mom takes a shower!ġ0-11:30 am: play on floor with mom, tummy time, go for a walk, etc.Ģ:00-3:30 pm: play with toys, tummy time, etc.ģ:30 pm: down for 3rd and final nap of the dayĤ:30-5:30 pm: play, music time, tummy timeĦ:00 pm: bed time 3 month old nap schedule All sleep plans and evaluations will be reviewed by my mentor. I’m currently studying to become a certified sleep consultant and am in the practicum part of my study.

How long should my 3 month old be awake?Īt 3 months, the longest your child should go in between naps is 1.5 hours. Simply not allowing baby to get over-tired or too hungry is the basis for a manageable 3 month old schedule. The reason for this is largely stemming from the fact that once babies are over-tired or very hungry you can bet the rest of the day isn’t going to be too pleasant. While it’s much harder to put newborns on a schedule, by the time your baby reaches 3 months old, they should be on a predictable schedule or routine each day.Ī strict or rigid routine that doesn’t allow for daily variances isn’t advised, but it’s wise to follow a loose schedule each day.
