Why has my 22 month old dropped her nap and started waking so early?

My dd went from sleeping from 6.30pm to 6.30am and a two hour nap to dropping nap and waking at 5am overnight? Will it settle down?

How long has this been going for?

My DD went through something similar around that age. It only lasted for a couple of weeks. She's now 2.5 and sleeps 11/12 hours at night and an hour or two during the day. She does still go through phases of sleeping poorly for a couple of weeks, I wonder if its teeth related. Is she otherwise ok?

Yes seems fine but very grumpy! Has been going on a week.

Mine, same age, naps heartily when at home, mostly goes to bed at 7pm, but has been waking at 10pm to party till 1am all this week. (And then up at 6 as usual)

He's pretty much given up napping at Nursery, so maybe after half term we'll get back to 'normal'. But I need that nap time, dammit! (And to sleep between 10 and 1).

Is this a thing? Wonky sleep just before age 2? I don't remember it from DC1.

Yes i dont remember from my first - he was still napping at 3!

Right on cue, here we are again. Half an hour in to the fury, I'm refusing to get him out of bed this time. I need to break this habit and get myself some sleep.

He's mainly lying there screaming, occasionally drifting off then remembering he's cross.

I did get him out for a cuddle, but he was still cross.

I do remember DC1 doing this, but not clearly enough to remember how often or how long this stage went on to I have a horrible feeling it was till he was 4
