Hello! I would like opinions on my DS recent night behaviour - I think we went through a pretty bad SR starting december, and there was probably a good dose of SA and a little bit of being ill. Before that he had become really good at independent sleeping and STTN, but then he started not wanting us to leave the room at BT, waking up several times and taking a long time to resettle, always needing us right next to him and holding hands or similar. We tried WIWO first which made things worst, and started GW which we made progress with, right now we kind of still need to be in the room but are able (not always yet) to stand by the door while he goes off to sleep.
So the BT procedure is acceptable, but during the night he still wakes 2-3 times; sometimes he calls out for us and we go in, sometimes he wanders out of the room (he sleeps on a floor bed) and comes to get me or DH. He's usually ok with just being led back to his bed, we just sit next to his bed and he's back to sleep in a few minutes. Which is why I'm wondering, has it just become a habit? There is some kind of consistency in the times he wakes, although one night may be once, the next it's 4 times...any advice on how to stop this? Thank you!
