Is this normal sleeping habits for a 5 month old?

She wakes up 7am , takes a nap at 11 -2, another nap from 5-6 , then goes to bed around 9-10. She will wake up again at 2am and fuss throughout the night ! She constantly wants to eat ,so I just started oatmeal a few days ago, but everything is the same ! Is this normal for her to be waking up still ? When she wakes up ,she stays up for almost 2 hrs None of my other kids were like this , so I am lost ! I just feel like she is not sleeping enough !

my LO is also 5 months old. I don't know if it's normal but my LO wakes up between 6 and 7am. Goes down for a nap around 10am and wakes up around 12 to 1230pm. Goes down again around 3pm ish and wakes around 4pm. Her last bottle is around 7pm and right after that she goes down for the night.
She used to wake up for a feed in the early AMs when she was 2 months old. She dropped that feeding when she turned 3 months and woke up around 4 to 5am. Now at 5 months, she just recently pushed her wake up time to 6am.
Maybe your baby is just a big eater, which my daughter isn't so she's not that hungry.

She Always wants to eat ! I try and play with her to distract her ,but it doesn't work

I think she'll outgrow it soon! Just follow her lead.....i'm actually kind of jealous of you! I wish my DD would want to eat all the time so I don't stress out over her not eating!!

My dd is 5 months old and just started waking throughout the night to eat but she's only up for 10 mins at a time and then goes back to sleep. She usually wakes up around 2 and 4. She sometimes takes an hour morning nap and then cat naps throughout the day. She is s pretty good eater too (we didn't start food yet). I wish she'd go back to her 3 monty sleeping habits when she used to sleep through the night and take a long morning nap!
