Hi can anyone help? My now over 19 month old daughter has been a great sleeper since she turned 8 months old.
Her bedtime routine was food, play, bath, bottle then bed. She slept through every night from anywhere between 7pm-8pm through till 6am-7am.
At around 18 months that all changed! She still went to sleep fine but started waking in the night, she also developed a number of coughs and colds around this time and went off her food. This has been going on for 6 weeks now! Her appetite is back to normal but her night sleep is not showing any signs of improvement.
For the last 2 nights she has even started refusing going to sleep at bed time and hasn’t fallen asleep till around 9pm-10pm. If she wakes at night she won’t settle unless we are there or she comes into our room.
Last night she slept in our bed and slept all night. We do not want to get into this habit.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Will my baby ever go back to sleeping through the night?
All the 18 month sleep regressions claim this should not last longer tha 6 weeks!
Any advice gratefully received.
