DD is just over 8 MO - was 2 weeks overdue so closer fo 8.5 corrected it that makes any difference?
For the past week or so her night tjme sleep has been awful. For the first 3-4 hours she sleeps fine and then after that she has been waking up every hour - 2 hours & it's been so difficult to settle her and she's in a sort of half awake half asleep state.
She has recently cut 2 new teeth, one after the other and the second one is still short (only way I can think to describe it lol) so I imagine it hasn't finished growing through yet. I am wondering whether this can be the cause of the disturbed sleep or if it is the dreaded 8 month sleep regression.
The reason I ask is because I worry about whether the teething is causing discomfort and whether I should be giving her calpol to relieve this - or if it's just developmental related obviously shouldn't be medicated.
I am concerned that if I offer calpol I will be medicating for no reason - advice please :(
