Hi,

My previously happy, 11.5 month old great sleeper has become a terror the past 2 weeks. He is not teething. He is getting close to walking... He wakes up 2-3 times at night, whines, talks to himself for a while and falls back asleep. At 6:30 in the morning he has been waking up and will NOT go back to sleep. Naps have been pretty good, 1-2 hrs each. My biggest issue is that he is so crabby ALL day long. I can't cook or eat or anything without him crying at my feet. He cheers up if we are outside, but I can't be going outside all day to amuse him. Two days ago he slept to his normal wake up time at 8AM and was cheery all day, so I can only think its a sleep issue?

Normal schedule:

8AM- wake, 6oz bottle
8:30- breakfast
10:30-12:00 nap 1 (1.5-2 hrs)
12:30- lunch
2:00-6oz bottle
3-3:30 nap 2 (45-1:30)
5:00 snack
6:00 dinner
7:15 bath
8 bed

Hi hun, looks like you are in the throes of the 2-1 change. So it looks as if there may be two issues. One is a little SA which is normal and OT from the NW's can cause grumpiness in the middle of the day.  Have you taken a look at the 2-1 threads?

Bummer, I was afraid of that. I don't think he can handle the awake times yet. I will look through the boards for some ideas. Thanks for your help.
