My 22mo has NEVER slept through. I have tried everything! Recently his sleep is getting worse. He is either having split nights and is awake for 3 hours in the night, or he is waking every hour. He is fine when I go in to comfort him, but as soon as I put him down he starts crying again.
He goes to bed happy and is able to self settle. When he wakes in the morning he will lay there and play happily until I go into him.
First wake window is about 5 hours, then a 1-1.5 hour nap, then a 6 hour wake window before bed. Room is a good temp and I use white noise. He’s not hungry.
Any advice? If I let him cry for too long, he starts crying so much he throws up 😩

My 22 month old’s sleep has become really bad. I’m fairly certain it’s down to teeth but it’s draining.
No advice I’m afraid as you’re doing all you can. Have you tried dropping the nap or making it even shorter? Just a thought!
thank you! Yes I’ve tried shortening his nap and making it later, but because he’s not sleeping at night, he’s so exhausted by nap time 🤦🏼♀️

Oh no! Would he nap any earlier and then go longer until bed time so he was ultra tired?! There’s just no knowing with these toddlers 🙈
yeah I’ve also tried this and he becomes overtired before bed 🤦🏼♀️ honestly losing my mind. 26 weeks pregnant and the sleep deprivation is getting too much 😴

Oh bless you. That’s so tough when you’re pregnant too. Shot of whiskey in his milk before bed??!! 🤣🤣
I don’t even think that’d work 🤣

My girl wasn’t settling at nap or bed time.
We cut her nap to hour an 15 mins and it actually made it worse. She was then over tired so wasn’t sleeping properly..
The last few days she’s been getting up at 06:30am, napping 1pm - just after 3pm and going down for night time at 7pm. Sleeping all the way through.
If you’ve tried to shorten the nap then try do a few days without waking him and see if that helps?
