DS has always been a pretty good sleeper and started sleeping 7-7 at 7 months old, he woke up in the night sometimes and it was usually for a reason, dirty nappy or teething so we would change him or give calpol and he would go back to bed pretty easily. He goes to bed fine at bedtime.
For the past couple of weeks he has been waking up in the night (not every night but the last 2 he has) - he doesn't really cry just whimpers and cries out (but loudly enough so I am awake throughout) for an hour and a half every time. His nappy is fine and he calms when we pick him up but when we put him back down he cries (again not really upset just annoyed almost), he will also calm if we sit next to his cot holding his hand. I don't think its his teeth (?) as he usually screams blue murder regardless of what we do when it is.
I have just started back at work and I work pretty long days 7.30am - 6/7pm and I am finding it difficult to stay awake at work so I really would like to find an answer/solution to this. I know it may not be that easy but has anyone else experienced this? If so how did you overcome it?
Thanks!
