i see quite a few threads on this...and sooo hoping it passes!! but really really helpful to get some help/advice.

my 13month old has been waking in the night quite consistently for couple of months now.its not every night but on average we probably get one maybe two nights a week when she sleeps through until 6 ( her normal ish wake up time)

i have studied/changed feed times/she currently only has one nap in the day ( for the last couple of weeks, for 2 hours) and whilst this has helped wake up time - she still wakes up in the night!!

she chats,and can't seem to get herself back to sleep ( anywhere between 1 hour to 3 hours) you always think its to do with teeth, so have been giving her nurofen ( but don't want to do it every night!) and she has most of her molars through now. I feel am getting myself into a trap now of giving her some milk and this pretty much will do it most times. but she can't need it can she?? sometimes she takes 4 oz sometimes 6 ( then i think she does as thats quite alot)

she has tea between 5-5.30.a good feed.
bottle 6.45 ( 4-7oz, some nights she takes 4 and sleeps all the way through! - sometimes takes 7 and wakes up!??)

sorry to ramble Smile - just wondered whether i just need to go in once cuddle/shush and then leave her.she builds up to crying eventually, as i suppose she gets so frustrated and tired.

help please.feel like i am doing it wrong in the night.

tinks27- sorry you're having a hard time. we're having similar probs with DS 15 months here too

All I can say is that I know there is a developmental spurt at 13 months so you may just have to ride this out.

Maybe someone else may have some ideas? Smile
