Thanks for taking the time to read this. My little boy is 2, and has never ever been a good sleeper but he was going 8-7 for a while until he started getting his back molars.
He gets up around 6.30/7, naps 11.30-1ish with no issues. He has a great bedtime routine, bath, stories, cuddles, bed and he puts himself to sleep at 7.30pm.
Then it hits 12 and he is going insane. And I mean insane. He is breaking his heart crying. His back molars are cutting, so we give him pain relief, plus a drink then some ambesol/teething gel. This sometimes settles him for a while but the last three nights once it hits 2am he is hysterical. I don't understand! He is wide awake, so it's not night terrors. He's always had a night light, he has white noise, nothing is coming on to wake him. Hes just going wild. His daddy goes
To him and says he is holding onto him for dear life sobbing. The cry isn't a worrying one that I can't ignore. So I go in, then he's fine. Gurgling away to himself. Then I put him back in the cot and boom goes Wild again. I have no idea what to
Do, he's crying for hours and hours.
He's never tried to climb out his cot and has loads of space in there, nothing new in his room, not hungry or thirsty, no screens before bed for hours, please help me
