Sleeping on holiday

[timealone]

I have found the last two times I went away DS's sleep has gone crazy. Both times he was sleeping through before we went. When we went on holiday at 8 months he would wake as soon as I put him down in his cot (after rocking to sleep) and was really hard to settle. Ended up cosleeping with him pretty much sleeping on me. At 11 months he settled to sleep fine but then was up for 1-2 hours in the middle of the night every night. Now we're back home and his sleep appears to be back to normal.

Has anyone else experienced this and when did it stop being a problem? I'm scared to go on holiday again now!
