SLEEPLESS DAYTIME: Babies at almost 3 months are usually playful and feed frequently and sleep when tired. When someone is always playing with them they are responsive and forget to sleep. They should be allowed to sleep after taking a bath. A good nap always promote growth plus good nutrition.

Maybe,maybe not: Babies need to get enough restorative sleep/24hrs to support normal growth & developmental progress. If she sleeps well at night & gathers brief cat naps off & on during the day, enjoy the process. Infants do not understand or look forward to sleep. They enjoy the alert times & try to hang on.
