7 month old, previously a very good sleeper, now isn’t sleeping.

As the title says, my 7mo LO has previously been a good sleeper, has been sleeping through the night consistently since 10wks (well I would have had to pop his dummy in once or twice a night) and has been in his own room for 4 weeks.

The transition to his own room went really smoothly, in fact I thought he was sleeping a lot better in there.

Unfortunately, for the last week he has been wakening a lot during the night, popping dummy in isn’t helping, self settling is no longer working (he was previously fairly good at this) and it is taking 2 hrs of rocking, pacing and shushing to get him back to sleep.

I have considered teething as being the issue but he is showing no other symptoms at the minute and gels, powders etc are not calming him down.

Any suggestions of what the problem could be or any tips for me to try with him would be greatly appreciated (especially this weekend as DH is going away for the weekend and I will need all the help I can get).

Just to add, he has never been a great napper so he isn’t sleeping too much during the day
