10 month old won't settle at night anymore

Has anyone had similar and has any advice please?

My 10 month old has always been a good sleeper. Usually goes down for naps and bedtime himself (I put him in cot awake and he nods off shortly after with a lullaby on). Sometimes at night he'll wake for a bottle which is fine.

However the past couple of weeks trying to put him down for bed he just stands up and cries until I go in and soothe him. This happens over and over. He's definitely tired as lots of eye rubbing during his bedtime bottle, etc. if anything he's probably overtired, but I can't really put him to bed any earlier than 6.30/7.

He's recently cut down to 1 nap. I know this is early but he usually wakes at 8am, naps 11.30-2.30ish then bedtime is about 7. I can't fit in 2 naps unless I cut his usual nap short, but if I wake him he's then grumpy all afternoon!

I'm hoping it's a phase that'll pass, but I also have a toddler and their bedtime is getting disrupted as the baby takes so long to go down at night!
