I’d appreciate any advice or to hear if anyone else’s DC do this!

DD goes to bed no issues, pretty much straight to sleep after bedtime routine and bottle etc. Great. She goes to bed about 7PM and we don’t hear a peep out of her until between midnight and 1am. It is then like a switch flicks and she’s restless and unsettled for the rest of the night!! It’s always between 12-1 every night without fail. I just can’t understand why?!?

It took me until 3:20 to get her back to sleep last night, I tried sush pat, singing, changing, bottle, cuddles, dummy to no avail! She was then awake again at 6AM for the day. There are points that it’ll seem like she’s settled and she’ll be quiet for 10 mins or so but then she starts tossing and turning and rolling over again! I’m just not sure what’s causing it or if there’s anything I can do?!

DS always had a little party in the middle of the night for a couple of hours. We tried all sorts (like trying different bed times, naps etc) but had no luck. He just grew out of it at 11 months.

Thanks @JoJoSM2, I am hoping she’ll just get over it but I feel so helpless that I don’t know what’s wrong and can’t help her! She seems so frustrated bless her! It’s so weird how it’s exactly the same time every night too!
