At this age baby usually sleeps for 12 hours in a day .This also includes about 20 minutes  nap 2or3 times in day time.     If your baby                . Is hungry.                  Or having teething pain                   Or uncomfortable for some                     other reasons.      These all will disturb his naptime during day.So check for these things.
