Change in sleeping patter...seeking advice

My 9month little boy has always been a good sleeper at night but the last 3 nights he has been really difficult to go down and has been waking up approx every 30 mins screaming/moaning! Then goes back down with comforting him.
He does have a cough/cold and teething. As I am a first time mum this is all new to me, does anyone have any ideas, is it illness and teething related? I hope it passes!
Please help, many thanks cx

Teething and cold are definitely two good reasons that might ruin his sleep. Have you given him any calpol? I didn't give this to my DC1 until he was a year old, but in hindsight should have probably given it a bit more often / earlier to give some pain relief when he was teething.

He has a cold and teething - there's your answer. Try and relieve his symptoms.

Thanks again...I seem to keep missing letters out of my message, just goes to show what lack of sleep can do cx

I agree with calpol and we also use teetha powders and bonjela which seems effective. If my ds isn't poorly i try powders and bonjela first and calpol if still not settling.
