Title: Toddler waking up for 1 hour + each night!
Post by: Zoya8120 on July 08, 2014, 11:18:26 am
Help! My 20 month old was sleeping through the night until about a month ago. For the past month she has been waking throughout the night and I've been shushing her back to sleep. ( sitting at her bedside or from door making shush noise). The past 3 nights she's started waking for 1-2 hours around 2am. When she wakes she's not tired and tosses around crib. I've tried shushing ... Letting her cry for short intervals but am at a loss. Basically she's sleeping 9-645 with an hour+ wake up. She's also become difficult napping. I have to sneak out of the room shushing her and she often wakes frequently.. Usually napping only an hour.

What do you suggest?!

I should mention that this all started with a switch to a toddler bed (she jumped out of her crib). She is also getting her canine teeth. She is going to sleep fine and then waking up 1-2 times per night.

Typical day:
Wake up:630 (I try to get her to go back to sleep bc she's so tired still)
Nap: 130-230
Bedtime: 830 ( wakes up and runs to door 1-2 times per night.. Approximately 1-2 hours awake)

She make be having night terrors and bolting from bed. This has been going in for a month and before she slept perfectly through night.

She may have some attachment issues. She's pleasant at bedtime. However, she always wakes with piercing screaming .. :(
