Question: how many hours a day should my 1 month old be awake?
Answer: Napping: Your little sleepyhead will take lots of little naps (for up to 8 hours a day). The daytime cycle is 1 to 2 hours of awake time then 1 to 2 hours of napping. During the second month, if your baby's nap goes over 1.5 to 2 hours, it's not a bad idea to wake him for a feeding.
