Hi, I'm really hoping someone can point me in the right direction with this one, as currently feel to have a head full of mush and my eyes are on stalks!
For the last 3 nights my 10 month old has woken hourly since being put down to bed. Bedtime routine is very structured and she's always in bed by 6:30 and goes down well, but within 2 hours of going down she's crying. It's been a mixture of situations when she does cry, as she will either be sat up crying in her cot, is actually still asleep yet crying? Or will let out a few crying yelps and then stops. I've not changed her routine recently, and the only change as such that I can think of is that I'm having to incorporate a morning pre-school run now, which isn't always ideal, but I can't help it. Our routine at the mo is;
6:30am wake up
7-7:30 milk
8:30 -9 solids
10:30 nap (have to wake at 11:30 to pick us DS1)
12 solids
3 nap (will let her sleep as long as poss given short AM nap, but can be tricky to get down at this nap)
4:30 solids
6 bath
6:30 milk and bed
At the mo she's currently sleeping as took a cheeky early nap in the car at 9am but only for 30 mins, so put her down at 1:30 for PM nap, hoping it'll be a good one! She's in top form during the day, happy, playful, eats well etc, it's just bedtimes.....
I'm confused to know what's going on, be it separation anxiety, teething, developmental, prop association (as settles once dummy is put back in, but only for an hour)
She has 4 teeth at the mo, with no sign of more coming through, but has had runny nose, sore bum, ear rubbing, therefore if appropriate have been giving Ibruorofen, teething granules/gel as needed, but this in turn hasn't alterd/improved the hourly NWs
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, I feel at my wits end xx
