How much sleep do babies ACTUALLY need?

My LO is 5mo and has never slept well. She only really naps for 30 minutes at a time which means I have to get her around 4 naps a day (if I'm lucky) and on average sleeps about 12 hours in a 24 hour period (2 hours of naps in total). Everything I read on the internet says that this is not enough and babies her age should be sleeping 14-16 hours a day. Does anyone else's baby sleep less than this? Is my LO normal? How much sleep to babies ACTUALLY need?
