K. So my little was sleeping so well. He has always been like an angel baby when it comes to sleeping. I'd put him to sleep and he'd babble a little to himself or brother and then drift off for 1.5 hours and then was awake and happy and off he'd go. About two weeks ago we did the 2:1 transition and he did great, maybe a little grumpy right before his bedtime, but he still went down without a catch. Then suddenly, like two days ago he just started screaming inconsolably when I put him down for naps and bedtime and when he'd wake up at night (NW aren't consistent at all). There are a few things I can think of that may have caused this, but I'm not sure how to remedy it.
1) We were at my parents' house for a week. There are lots of cats and I think he might have picked up something from that house. 2) I think he may be getting a molar... Not sure because some days I can see it and some days I can't...3) we let my in laws watch them overnight and I wonder if that may have traumatized him (though they said that he woke up happy and was playing really well after a big breakfast...). So yeah. Oh and I'm pregnant.
Here is our current schedule:
6:30 WU
7:00 breakfast
9:30 snack
11:00 (or noon, depending on how they are acting) nap
1:00 WU
1:30 lunch
3:00 snack
5:30 dinner
7:00 BT
Does any of this seem like it is off for a 13 month old? Any idea how to help him feel comfortable going to bed on his own again? The last two or three days I've cuddled him until he falls asleep because he'll scream and thrash otherwise.
