3yo waking multiple times during the night

[lambo88]

Our little boy was 3 in July and has always been a great sleeper generally sleeping 7-7...until around 8 weeks ago he's started waking multiple times during the night screaming etc...it's not night terrors as he's awake and nos where he is...some nights he's waking hourly...me and my husband don't no what to do...he's dropped his nap not long after he was 3 and we have him in bed for 7...any advice xx

I had the same with one of mine, he had reflux though and still does at 7 years old.
Are you sure it isnt nightmares ? Or maybe teeth or illness?

@Abitlost2 hiya he does have covid but luckily just a little cold but he's been like this since October...we changed his cot to his little toddler bed and from then he hasn't slept properly...I no that's probably coincidental...he just does a horrible scream and shouts is...he's waking around the same time at 10.30/12ish and he's ok to re settle then but as the night goes on it gets harder xx
