Help! Is this normal?
My boy just turned 18 months and he used to be a good sleeper (I know.. very lucky!) but the last couple of weeks has been challenging. That said, is it normal for a toddler at his age to wake up, have some milk and then just stay awake in bed, not make a sound whilst looking around for hours!
He is currently awake next to me and he’s been awake staring around the room for nearly 2 hours? Not making a sound except for a little happy squeak once or twice..

Yeah this is sign of a schedule change such as nap dropping or needing a longer/shorter wake window
Could be sleep regression. My little boy went through it at 18 months and it was hell for weeks 😅 he was an amazing sleeper before and since thankfully. But those weeks were hard going. We just stuck to our usual routine and when he woke in the night we kept it dark, minimal interaction with him aside from resettling and it did eventually pass.
