Hi
My 9 month old has in the last week suddenly started waking up between 12.30-3am.
We weaned her off her NF about a month or 2 ago without problem - she stopped stirring/waking for it.
- In the last 2 weeks, every night she wakes crying, really crying. My hubby has to pick her up to console her and then she stops. She doesn't really wake up, it's like she's crying in her sleep.
- She's gotten a new tooth in the last 2 weeks, which we thought was the problem, and i think she's getting another one now.
- I think she's starting to get seperation anxiety and she's starting to move around on her feet holding onto furniture.
- She gets a bottle every 4 hours and we are still doing the DF - she's a big baby and has always had an above average appetite!
- Her naps however are not consistent, some days she sleeps 3 times 36 mins, some days one 1.5 and another 35 mins - I have accepted that's just how she is and work her day around the sleep. She likes to have a shorter first A time also, but on average they are between 3-3.30 hours.
Sample Easy looks like this (the 2 hour nap here is not normal) :
6.40 A
7.00 E
8.30 Brekkie
09.10 S
10.30 A
11.00 E
12.30 Lunch
14.40 E
15.00 S
17.10 A
17.30 Dinner
18.50 E
19.50 E
20.05 S
22.30 DF
I hope someone can help! My poor hubby is like a zombie with these night wakings and i don't want to take over again
