Help please
My little one is 8 and a half months old, and every single night she’s having these like 2 hour wakes in the middle of the night around 2am.. shes not crying she’s not really tired she’s just wide awake looking around trying to grab things, she’s not overly hungry although I do feed to try help settle but doesn’t normally work.
I can’t stand and rock her for two hours, I’m exhausted should I just let her go feral for 2 hours and let her play by herself with something?
I’ve tried more/less daytime sleep, I’ve tried earlier/later bedtime just nothing seems to help, it’s not every single night but maybe 4/5 out of 7 😢
Any advice would really help

I’m in the exact same boat, my 21 month old will wake up in the middle of the night so tired but fights it for a few hours x

Unpopular opinion....if she is safe and all her needs are met. Leave her to self sooth I wouldn't give her something to play with as that could stimulate her more. Good luck momma
