20 month old night wakings

Hi

I have a 20 month old girl, she has never been a great sleeper but things have got even worse in recent months. She usually goes to bed at 7:30 and mostly gets down OK but then wakes once or twice in the night before waking up at around 5:30.

I think the main issue is that she often doesn't feed in the evening particularly after nursery so is hungry in the night. She seems to struggle to settle down for long enough to feed in evening and just wants to go and play, even when we sit down with her. We then often have to give her a bottle in the night to ensure she isn't just stirring all night.

Not sure if anyone has experienced similar issues and can offer any advice?

Mel

Yes, very similar and DS woke at 5/530 for the best part of a year. It was quite frustrating but I’d perhaps try not to give a bottle in the night to see if that improves her appetite in the day.
