How much sleep does an 80-day-old baby need?

I believe that many people think of babies as "little angels" who love to sleep. In fact, babies' sleepiness is a need of their own bodies. Babies of different ages and even months sleep differently because their bodies are growing and developing. In other words, younger babies will sleep longer, generally more than twelve hours. So, how much sleep does an 80-day-old baby need?

First, how much sleep does a 80-day-old baby need? Generally speaking, he can sleep 16 to 18 hours. The sleep time of babies varies from person to person. The normal sleep time required by children is as follows: Newborn to 2 months: 20 hours; 2 to 4 months: 16 to 18 hours; 4 to 9 months: 15 to 16 hours; 9 to 12 months: 14 to 15 hours; 12 to 15 months: 13 to 14 hours; 15 months to 2 years: 13 hours; 2 to 3 years: 12.5 hours; 3 to 5 years: 12 hours. Babies over 80 days old sleep about 16 hours a day.

Second, sleep is a normal physiological instinct of human beings, and adequate sleep helps the baby's growth and development. And the younger the age, the longer the sleep time. It is true that babies sleep much longer than adults, especially newborns, who sleep most of the day and only wake up when they are hungry, wet, cold or otherwise disturbed. However, since sleeping patterns and habits are genetically predisposed, babies' sleep needs vary from person to person. Newborns sleep a lot, and their brains are not yet fully developed. Sufficient sleep is one of the prerequisites for ensuring the health of newborns and infants. Newborns under one month old sleep 21-22 hours a day and are awake for 2-3 hours. That is, except for feeding, crying, and defecation, they are basically in a sleeping state, and sleep time accounts for 90% of the whole day.

How much sleep does an 80-day-old baby need? The quality of the environment will affect the baby's sleep. Mom and Dad need to keep the room warm, with the room temperature at about 20-21℃. Install a dimmable table lamp or bedside lamp in the newborn's room to make it easier for the mother to take care of the baby at night. When the baby falls asleep, the light can be dimmed without affecting the baby's sleep. It is also convenient for the mother to get up at night to feed the baby. Parents should not smoke at home and should let their newborns live in a smoke-free environment. Secondhand smoke is too dangerous for babies. Do not place clothes or other items on the baby's crib, especially various packaging bags, plastic papers and other debris, to prevent the baby from suffocating.
