How much should babies sleep within the first year?

As the months go by, my baby should sleep less and less, but how much is the right amount for each month respectively?

Answer:
If you go to americanbaby.com they have a chart that tells you approx how much sleep a baby needs at different stages. Even though every child is different, it's a nice guide to go by.
There is no set time, they sleep when they need it. That being said, you also have to train him/her to sleep through the night by not running in there every time he/she makes a peep. Good luck.
I've had ten babies, and none of them seemed to sleep enough! Each one is different though.
At least 8 to 10 hrs a night. Babies are different in their required amount of sleep. Hard to say.
Each child is different. Your child could require more sleep your child could require not a lot of sleep. Go with how your child behaves.
Just like adults some children need more sleep and some need less, so there is NO set amount. Your child(ren) will let you know when they need to sleep.
Your Child will let you know when he/she is tired and trust me go with it!
