Sigh. It seemed we were making such good progress, LO was not waking until 2 or 3 for a feeding then sleeping til his normal wake time around 6:45. During the last week, though, there have only been two times he's done that, and he's done a 12:50 wake once. He's been waking crying and not settling without a feeding as early as 10:30. Last night he cried so hard and solidly (almost without pause) that I gave up and fed him just before 11. :( Then he was up at 2:35. I waited as he sounded several times like he was crying a mantra cry, but it went on until 3:15 so I went in then.

We suspected teething so last night he had Ibuprofen before bed, guess it did not help. I have to be away two nights at the end of the month and am panicking as DH does not ever go in at night and I was so hoping LO would be STTN by then. Argh.

Discomfort must be at play whether it be teeth or else food issues.  Is he happy to independelty fall asleep at bedtime?  Just check that there is no night time association.

I was thinking about discomfort as well. He is starting to eat a lot more solids and also has the teething signs. Also wondering about a growth spurt/hunger as he really ate a lot yesterday and then again today. He can fall asleep on his own (did tonight - I wasn't even in the room, he just chatted himself off to sleep) but has been trying to get back to his nurse to sleep habit over the last several days (but I caught on and have not let him the last few).

Knocking wood -- has done better the last few nights -- waking after 2 (bedtime is still around 7, meaning he's asleep then). Wondering what to do next -- wait longer til I go in at that waking? He is always sitting up when I go in then, crying and looking for me.  :(

He has figured out how to climb the stairs, so lots going on in his little head, but I know that will always be the case. Is also pulling up to stand. He is trying to keep us very much on our toes!

How is everyone else getting on?

(((hugs))) mukta and Happy Birthday Aadi.  :)  Ahhhhh, toddlers!!

I started my own NWing post because we have been getting ridiculous long NWings still.  But last night was better.  Still, I'm feeling like we're NEVER going to be able to get rid of this last NF!  :P

Those long night wakings are no fun! :-( What does he do when you go in to him?

Congrats to both of you on his first birthday!!

Awww. Does sound a bit like separation anxiety... not sure what the BW techniques for that are, though. Hoping you get relief soon!

I hear you!! But have been lucky (knock wood) that DS usually goes back to sleep after the feeding.
