RE: Hi doctor. My baby girl is 5 years old. She sleeps 12 hours a day.is it normal? She doesn’t concentrate in her studies and games.

1 Answers

    Sleeping for 12 hours including nap time is normal in this age group. However it should not disturb her academic or other activities. If she is tired or drowsy even after her sleep or showing lack of interest in studies , she should get pediatrician opinion and evaluation to look for anemia , thyroid function or any other causes.
