Question RE: Night Wakings
« on: August 29, 2012, 15:55:17 pm »
Hi,
I've seen posted on here that if LO wakes early into the night, say after 1-2 hours, it is usually an indication LO is OT?
Am I correct?
If that is the case, does anyone have any idea why my LO will fall asleep at BT and sleep for anywhere between 5-6 hours before NW?
DS will fall asleep at 6:35-7:15 and sleep until midnight or 1:00am or thereabouts and then wake up...Sometimes takes an hour to get him back to sleep...He's not crying or fussing, just seems he's tying to get comfortable - moving around a lot in crib and eventually gets frustrated and I end up having to sooth him...

Usually another NW at 4ish then up for day anywhere between 6-6:30...

Forgive me as i know I've posted about this before but I'm so confused and looking for what might be the cause...

Thank you so much...

Hello Honey,

Hard to say without seeing his EASY, could you post it please. It sounds like UT at a guess but hopefully we'll be able to tell better when we see his routine.

NW soon after PD do tend to be due to OT, yes.

Hi there,
On a good day in a perfect world, his EASY looks like this...
W6:30
A
S 11:30-1:30 (usually better part of 2hr naps)
A
Windown starts at 7 with bath, bottle, cuddle and in bed by 7:20/7:30ish...

This morning he woke up only once at 4:30 and I could't get him back down until 6. Let him sleep until 7:15 as today is a nursery school day. He is 13 months old.

He did sleep last night from 7:30 - 4:30. I gave him some meds at around 5:30 which I think helped as well I cuddled him in a big blanket. Is it possible he is cold at night? He sleeps in a onesie with no blanket - usually kicks it off so I stopped putting it in. Just thinking out loud...

Thanks!

Honey his EASY looks great to me TBH. Does he ever wake early into the night when his EASY is going well, or only when the day has gone wrong ie: shorter nap/longer day/teething  ???

no, it's usually after a short nap, ew, but it seems he is stuck in a terrible rut of one after the other...OT maybe?

Yes, I think so Honey. Unfortunately initial UT at BT can quickly turn into OT. Maybe it's purely teeth at the moment  ???

could be. He suffers terrible with his teeth...Last night he went down at 7:40pm no problem and I didn't hear from him until 3:10am. He was standing in his crib so I gave him his soother back, pu and calmed down, put back down into his crib and he went back to sleep. Slept this morning till 6:10am...
not so bad really - I did give him some pain meds before bed so I'm sure that helped...
So frustrating some times trying to figure out what's going on...Oh, he also started walking as his preferred mode of transportation just this week. I guess that could be adding to it?
