15 month old waking and crying when I leave the room

Hi, my 15 month old has normally been a good sleeper. She has just spent 4 weeks in our room in a travel cot due to a period of being sick in her sleep. Last week we put her back in her own room. She was fine for 4 nights, now the last 3 has been waking between 12-1 crying and when we resettle her she cries 5 minutes after we’ve left the room. Last night this repeated for hours until we eventually resettled her in our bed.

Any words of wisdom? I don’t want her crying but equally don’t want her sleeping in our room until she’s 15! I don’t understand why she was fine for the first 4 nights.

It will pass, I promise. It's just a little blip. Keep doing what you're doing and if she really won't settle then just co sleep for now.

She definitely won't be in your room at 15! In fact, I predict a week or two and she'll be back to normal

Thank you!

After half an hour of pick up put down and eventually trying to sneak out the room I sent in my husband. He tried for an another half hour before I relented and said to bring her into our bed. She’s still not settled so not sure what’s going on. Have tried teething gel to see if it’s that.

Just bumping this to see if anyone else has any thoughts/advice?

We’ve decided that we’ll put our daughter to bed in her own room as normal each night and if we can’t re-settle any night wakes quickly we’ll bring her into our room.

hey love how are you getting on? don’t have any advice but i’m going through hell with my 15 month old too and have co-slept from 2am onwards for the last week. cries as soon as we even consider lowering her down into cot, even when you think she’s fast on!
