As children grow older, their sleep needs gradually decrease. Generally speaking, newborns need about 20 hours of sleep per day, while infants around 1 year old require 13-14 hours of sleep.

Parents often wonder when their baby can sleep through the night. According to professional opinions, generally speaking, babies are more likely to achieve this around 18 months old. However, this can vary depending on individual differences. For breastfed babies, they may take longer to start sleeping through the night, usually after they have given up the nighttime feeding habit. Moreover, if the baby doesn’t use diapers, they may not be able to sleep through the night until around 3 to 4 years old, as nighttime urination needs may affect sleep.
