DS is 9 months old and I have been very very lucky with his night sleep. He slept through fairly early and unil the last few weeks has always slept through.
However, the shit has really hit the fan recently since he has been able to sit up from laying down position. He used to be able to settle himself back t opsleep if he woke in the night. However, now he sits up and obviously can't go back to sleep so just cries for us.
We go in an lay him back down but the second we leave he cries and sits up again. I'm not sure if this is just separation anxiety or what but it's taking longer and longer to settle him back to sleep. We have to stay with our hand on him til he's in such a deep sleep that we can sneak out which is often unsuccessful.
We are totally new to all these night wakings and have no idea what to do. Family and friends have said sleep training and leaving him to cry but surely this can't work while he's sat up?? I need help!!!!!!!!!
