when my daughter was about that age she went through weird sleeping patterns as well. When they are growing and moving a lot more they sleep more. She is now almost 4 years old and still loves her naps (although i love her naps even more haha) she plays hard and sleeps hard. Unless the times when your baby is awake she seems groggy and lethargic i woudln’t worry. Also sometimes if i my daughter was getting a cold or something she would sleep a lot more

Babies and toddlers grow while they sleep! That’s why they sleep so much. If it concerns you, call your pediatrician’s nurse. They can relieve your worries.

Yes. I think around this age babies have off days or even weeks when it comes to sleeping. This past weekend my 6 month old didn’t care much for sleeping at all. But last week he slept so much! I wouldn’t worry about it. If it gets to the point where you couldn’t wake her then I would be worried.
