3-4 month old nap schedule

I *should* remember this from DD1. How many naps does your 3-4 month old typically take and how long are they awake before needing a nap? DD takes 4 naps a day and only stays awake for 1-1.5 hours before needing a nap. I kinda remember DD1 being awake for longer stretches at this age, but I may be mistaken.

3-4 month old nap schedule

DD is pretty much the same as yours. For a long time she's been doing 4 naps a day about an hour each. She is up for an hour sometimes hour and a half between naps. Now that she's just over 4 months, she's starting to drop down to 3 naps but then she ends up pretty cranky by the end of the day.

I think around that age they say on average a baby needs a nap every two hours. So some will go longer without a nap and some shorter. How long are the naps?
