For the past week, my daughter has woken up twice a night screaming. The only thing that seems to soothe her is milk. We’ve stopped giving her milk in the middle of the night months ago but started again this week… any ideas?

Could be either or both 😭 like my daughter, she wakes up earlier in the morning now and naps are super short all of a sudden, I’m pretty sure she’s in a regression as well as cutting multiple teeth. Been 2 weeks now

We've been having a really tough time too the past couple weeks between molars coming in and/or regression.

My son too twice in a row screaming. The third & fourth day/night wouldnt let me put him down to sleep as if he was scared to be alone, even with naps. It makes me think what could he have witnessed that gave him nightmares this bad besides me saying no to extra candy lol. And i make sure i pray over him every night and morning, i believe babies see spirits; we worship God over here and i dont want no bad spirit scaring my baby.

18 months is when babies get a peak of separation anxiety being placed in bed and them crying immediately after us is a sign of that.

oh okay. I thought that started way before 18mo

it does start way before and then it usually goes away but then at 18 months it has a sudden peak, a surge of separation anxiety
