My 11mo has got three top teeth coming down at the same time which understandably is messing him about.
He has gone from being a brilliant sleeper (sleeping through the night) to taking hours to go to sleep, waking at least once in the night (usually when calpol/calgel wears off), and not sleeping in the day.
At bedtime he just jumps in his cot for hours not even considering sleep. On a bad night, he can wake up to three times and take 30 mins to go back to sleep each time.
And as for daytime naps, they are a thing of the past, it seems. He used to wake for bottle at around 7-7.30, then go straight back to bed for 2-2 1/4 hours, and then another hours in the afternoon. But for the past few days, he's been waking at 6am and not going back to sleep until around 1pm- a sleep that only happens because he's so exhausted he can't stay awake.
My question is- do I go through the horrible process that is sleep training or will this all just wear off when his teeth are through? I literally feel like I'm losing my mind, I'm constantly frustrated because he won't sleep. He never seems tired and grumpy, he just will not sleep.
Please help!
