1 Year Old starting waking every 2 hours at night

Help! My little boy will be one on Monday, he's never been one to sleep through the night but we'd got to a point where he was only waking once for a quick feed (now bottle fed) then straight back to sleep. But in the last two weeks he's been waking every 2 hours and will not go back to sleep in his cot, he'll only sleep on me and if my partner goes in instead of me he goes mental and screams until he's nearly sick.

I'm due to go back to work in a week and have no idea how I'll manage on only a few hours sleep.

He's just started nursery and has been very clingy with me during the day when we're home. Is this just age related separation anxiety? Should I try some form of sleep training?

Any ideas / suggestions welcome!

Sleep training is a good idea. My DD was like this at 11months but we did controlled crying (which was horrible to be honest) and she slept through in 3 nights. Like I said it wasn't fun but it worked. You go in and comfort then leaving longer gaps each time. It saved my sanity.
