2year old constantly getting up in the night

[imnotsmallimfunsized]

After yet another bad night with DD getting up in the night I thought I would see if anyone can help me.

We moved house 3 weeks ago and since we have our DD aged 2y6m, keeps getting up in the night she doesn't cry she just shouts for me and DP. She now has bags under her eyes just like us. Which isn't helping with the 12 hour shifts me and DP do at work.

She has always been a very good sleeper and I don't no why this is happening. I know that change is hard for a child but we still live in the same area she still goes to her grandmas while we work. So the only change is the house.

Can anyone give me any ideas as to how to get her to sleep through the night

Has she still got the same bed, bedding, toys etc?

Yup everything is exactly the same we even decorated it the same.

Have you asked her why she's doing it? It sounds like she's waking up and realises it's a strange room so she's calling out for your both. Does she settle as soon as you go in? I would say that time will fix it when she gets used to her new environment.

She just asks to get in with us but we don't want to do that.
When we go in it takes ages for her to go back to sleep so lots of up n down for us. I don't mind it but its 3 weeks now and no change. I'm hoping with me and DP now off for 5 days she might settle as she will be spending lots if time at home with the weather turning bad

Is she still napping in the day? Could be a total red herring (albeit a huge coincidence) and she might be needing less sleep overall.

Nope she hasn't napped in the day since she was 18 months. That's why I'm baffled as to what to do

Unless there's something else afoot, it must be the house move. Even though she's got everything the same, I think things like these can be very unsettling to a child. Others just breeze through it.

I'm really sorry I don't have any other advice for you - hopefully it will sort itself out. Was she involved in buying things for her room - perhaps she could buy a new duvet cover, or something like that, to make her feel its more like home?

We have taken her out today and bought a new rug and summer blanket for her, fingers crossed tonight is better.

Thanks for your help.
