Hey!
My little girl is 11 months and 1 week old, she has always been pretty good at going down to sleep for naps and bedtime but since the past 4 days or so she has been getting inconsolable at bedtime!! She has just cut her first tooth so was thinking maybe pain? But doesn’t show any other signs that she’s possibly in pain.
She usually falls asleep drinking her bottle but she hasn’t been, as soon as the bottle gets taken away as it’s finished she is screaming and crying and getting into a state. I don’t want to create a negative association with sleep but I don’t know what else to do?
She wakes from her last nap between 3-4pm and is in the bedroom ready for story and sleep by 7pm.
Any ideas?

Maybe a larger bottle could help? X

Mine is the same, teething has really affected him. Tbh I’m feeding him to sleep atm because it’s the only thing that works! X

Try slightly later bedtime. Might need a slightly longer last wake window

Is she showing signs of being tired, like rubbing eyes yawning etc? My LO bedtime was always 7, but once she hit 11 months she was fighting it for a few hours some nights - i pushed her bedtime back by 30 minutes and she does down like she use to. The teeth situation wont be helping either. Everything is just a phase - it'll pass 🩷
