10mp waking once a night and not self settiling/ only feeding to sleep

[ThatWildOliveMaker]

My 10mo has always BF to sleep or been rocked and sung to sleep.
I don’t really want to do sleep training but I just wanted to know at what point other babies ‘taught themselves’ to go to sleep?
She wakes up once a night normally which doesn’t bother me at all!
My husband is military and his deployment has just been extended to 8 months and I go back to work next week (a new job) so I really don’t want to start sleep training now.
I would just like to know there is an end in sight of her learning herself?!

From my three I'd say not into thier third year.

The No Cry Sleep Solution is really helpful for realistic understanding of baby sleep plus suggestions on how to improve it.

Others may have found sleeping through the night happened earlier.

My LO didn't sleep all night until after they turned 2yo. At just turned 3yo we get the occasional wake (you can count on one hand over a month).

It's normal and common but you don't tend to hear about it for fear of judgement and for older relatives defending you sleep train.
Do what works for you!

19 month here wakes on average twice a night for milk/cuddle but goes back to sleep quickly. Waking once a night is really really good for a 10th old so I wouldn’t try and change anything

I agree with around 3 when you can talk to them during the day and tell them when they walk up during the night they should try snuggling into bed and seeing if they go back to sleep by themsleves.

You can do gentle sleep training which you should, better for baby and better for you. Sleep is really important developmentally for babies and very important for adults to stay sane

@DrJump @IgoogledYOLO @Nohousemove
Thank you so much everyone. This is what I expected and I’m expecting that so thank you. I agree that we are so lucky with what is happening now.
she isn’t loosing out on sleep as she still gets a good 13-14 hours in a 24hour period so I’m definitely not concerned about that.

@Nofilteritwonthelp there isn’t a need to sleep train if I am correct? I believe it is personal choice?

One wake is really good and if you’re happy with your settling methods then just keep going as you are. Absolutely no need to sleep train. I have been considering sleep training my 17 month old using a gentle method because he has suddenly stopped wanting to be cuddled/fed/rocked/bounced to sleep and just stands shouting in his cot. If I was in your position though I wouldn’t even consider it. The PP above telling you you should, is wrong.

@Snowdrop80 thank you so much. So hard to hear the constant why’s she not sleeping through but I am really happy with how we are doing.
