2 year old sleep

Yes! We’ve had a couple of weeks of random night waking and refusing to go back to sleep! Three mornings this week he has woken around 3am 🥱 it was 5am today so that’s a lie in right now 🤣 hopefully just a phase 🤞🤞 he turned 2 three weeks ago!

The only thing that works for us is to bring him into our bed. We found that using screens quickly set a new routine we didn't want.

Lately he's been waking up crying and we have put it down to night terrors or being overtired some days when he dodges a nap.

We just lay with him and gently rock or talk to him. The other night it took us 2 hours on and off to calm him but he's not done it since.

Have a read about night terrors as they can start around this age. Good luck. There is no one size fits all for toddler sleep.

Yes in this exact position 😩 he’s so tired as well just cries all morning. The only way I can get some more sleep is the tv if I put him in my bed he goes mental 😩

My little one does this sporadically, although not quite as early as your one - she usually wakes between 5/5.30am when she does & doesn’t go back to sleep even though I try to get her to & bring her into bed with me, etc. She seems ok during the morning after but is ready for her nap when it’s nap time lol don’t know why it’s happening - really hope I don’t need to reduce her 45 min nap down anymore 😅

My LO only ever gets on like that when he’s teething or not well. I would check to see if any new teeth are coming through.

We had this a month or so ago. Think it lasted about a week and then just went back to normal. We just tried to stay as consistent as possible throughout. No idea if that actually made a difference though.

I really hope it’s a phase 😂 and he hurry’s up out of it xx

it’s just horrible isn’t it 😩😩 I need some sleep the other night he was up midnight-3 then woke up at 5 xx

he does keep putting his hands in his mouth every now and then xx

hopefully it won’t last much longer xx

yes he’s definitely teething. My LO is teething atm and has his fist on his mouth occasionally

We had this for a week more or less and then realised that 1 out of the last 4 molars is coming out. Stay strong 💪🏼

Hiya all thank you so much I think he has a molar coming, he woke up at around 6 this morning 🥳🥳😂 let’s hope it continues, least I got a good night sleep xx
