I have a two month old baby girl and doesn't nap during the day is it bad for her health?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May need some tweaks: Some babies are better nappers than others and a 2 month old typically will spend a fair amount of the day (even 18-20 hours) asleep. Some times subtle changes in the schedule can significantly help with daytime napping. Try earlier nighttime bedtimes (such as 6:30 pm) and consistent attempts at nap.Books i like: healthy sleep habits, healthy child (weissbluth) and healthiest baby on block (karp).
