Did she recently go through any kind of sickness that maybe disrupted her normal sleeping schedule? We had this issue with my son, where he was sick for about a week and would wake up a couple of times at night. I got right back in the habit of giving him a bottle, diaper change, and then put him back in bed. He eventually got better, but it became a habit. He was 12 months old by then and the pediatrician had told me that he should be sleeping 10-12 hours at a time by that age. He told me that we would need to let him cry it out for a couple of nights. It was so hard to do, but it really only took 2 nights of crying and then he was back to sleeping through the night.

Because your baby is younger, you may want to ask the pediatrician how long she should be sleeping and suggestions for getting her back to sleeping better. It was so hard making him cry it out, but oh so worth it! Good luck!

We went through this as well. And my husband let it last until 15 months.. He liked picking our son up and rocking him back to sleep @ 530..I did not. So when we went to work out of town, I let my son cry it out. Only took a couple times..

However , we also went through this when he was 5 months old. We just got up him then.

Dont let it become a habit, and do ask your dr how much he should be sleeping.

It'll get better!!

Teething is always hard. She is probably getting up because of that. Try your best to stay consistant with your routines and maybe try to extend those naps. Babies never sleep as well when they are over tired. My son is only 6 weeks old and is sleeping through the night, but my daughter never slept through until she was about 4 years old...it was brutal! Letting them cry is not a bad thing, your daughter is old enough now for you to do it It is painful for us parents to listen to the screaming, but it works! Good luck!

This is a very tough situation that our babies put their parents through lol. Every baby is different.. my 9 year old would only sleep 20 minutes at a time and when he finally slept through the night, he would still wake up at 4-5am. This happened, honestly, up until he was about 8 years old. We found out that he had Tourette Syndrome and that kids with TS have very poor sleeping patterns. My daughter, almost 10 months, on the other hand has slept 14 hours a night since the day she was born. She has recently been wanting to go to bed earlier (like 6:30!) because she has not been allowing herself to take full naps (maybe an hour total a day.)

In a situation like your's I might try eliminating a nap and spreading out the remaining two. This might be a bit more stressful during the day as she may get a bit crabbier or your energy as mom just may need a break, but by the end of the night, when she's exhausted for not being able to take that one 1/2 hour nap (it does a lot!) hopefully you will be able to enjoy a bit more time sleeping to re energize your mom powers! =) I hope everything works out! Best of luck!

My daughter who is 8 months does this sometimes. Usually I give her a warm bottle and change her diaper and she will go back to bed for two or so hours. If your daughter is teething it definitely makes things much harder. Give her some Tylenol or infant ibuprofen, baby orajel, or try teething tablets (they didn't work with my daughter, but I have heard good things with other babies.) Maybe even try cutting a nap during the day. I know that is one of the hardest things to do, I've tried! Good luck!
